USDA Loans

The USDA loan program is a great option for homebuyers seeking 100% financing. If you’re looking or considering purchasing a home in an eligible rural area, this program allows 100% financing with $0 down payment. The seller is allowed to pay up to 6% of the purchase price towards closing costs, if negotiated in the purchase agreement. Closing costs may also be rolled into the mortgage if the appraisal comes in higher than the purchase price.

Rural Development Single Family Housing Guaranteed Loan Program

This program assists approved USDA lenders in providing low and moderate-income households the opportunity to own adequate, modest, decent, safe and sanitary dwellings as their primary residence in eligible rural areas. Eligible applicants may build, rehabilitate, improve or relocate a dwelling in an eligible rural area. The program provides a 90% loan note guarantee to approved lenders in order to reduce the risk of extending 100% loans to eligible rural homebuyers.
