Do you plan to buy a home in rural Michigan, or elsewhere in rural America? You might be able to do so with zero down if you apply for a USDA mortgage.
What is a USDA Loan?
A USDA mortgage is a home loan guaranteed by the US Department of Agriculture. As with other types of government-backed loans like FHA or VA, a USDA mortgage features easy credit qualifications and other exciting benefits.
What are the Benefits of a USDA Mortgage?
Here are some reasons to apply for a USDA home loan:
- Zero down payment is required to move into your new home.
- You can pay affordable interest rates even if you do not apply with a perfect credit score.
- While is program is income-based, those with lower incomes should be able to qualify assuming other criteria are met. In fact, many households with middle incomes will also be eligible.
Are You Eligible for a USDA Mortgage?
To be eligible for a USDA home loan, you need to meet these basic requirements:
- Your income must not exceed 115% of the median household income for your area.
- You must purchase a home that is in a USDA-defined “rural” zone.
One thing bowers may not realize is that certain areas they do not think of as rural count within the USDA guidelines.
