USDA Loans
A USDA loan is a mortgage program backed by the United States Department of Agriculture for rural homebuyers with low to moderate incomes and eligible rural properties.
Eligibility includes income limits, location within designated rural areas, and meeting credit and property requirements specified by the USDA.
There are many benefits, including: no down payment required; borrowers who qualify for a USDA Rural Development home loan have the flexibility to pay nothing out of pocket for a down payment. Additionally, the USDA Loan allows borrowers to use a gift or grant to go toward their mortgage.
