What is a USDA Loan?
Known as the USDA Rural Development Guaranteed Housing Loan Program, a USDA loan is backed by the government and guaranteed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. You can only benefit from a USDA loan if your property falls within the eligibility area (link opens in a new tab).
Along with the land requirement, you must also have a payment that’s 29% or less than your monthly income, dependable income for a minimum of 24 months and a good credit history.
USDA Benefits
There are numerous advantages of securing a USDA mortgage, such as the USDA guaranteeing all loans against default which allows lenders to take more risks for home buyers. Other benefits include:
- No down payment
- 100% financing
- Low interest rates
- Low private mortgage insurance
A USDA loan is a 30-year fixed-rate option at PrimeLending. It’s a popular option among first-time home buyers and for those who are buying on a budget.
