USDA Rural Development Loans - a 100% financing solution
*** We offer the USDA Pilot Streamline Refinance Program - call for details
Home Buyers still have access in many areas to a little known US Government Loan Program that offers 100% financing for the purchase of a Home in eligible areas. USDA Eligible areas have been designated as "Rural" due to population density. Strangely enough, only non-farm residences can qualify, however single family homes and condos can qualify. The program is designed to help develop home buying options in less densely populated areas that may be under-served by mainstream home loans. There are many areas that qualify for the USDA Rural Development Zero Down Payment Home Loan Program.
With the USDA mortgage program, the borrower is not required to make a down payment,
On a $250,000 USDA backed home purchase, there are two areas that you save: First, There is no down payment requirement, so you will save $8,750 versus an FHA Loan, with the required FHA down payment of 3.5%. Second, Since there is a lower Mortgage Insurance rate vs FHA, you would save $96/month in MIP (Mortgage Insurance Premium). These two savings make this program a very attractive for first time homebuyers, as you can qualify for more home with the same payment and income.
There are three primary pre-requisites to qualify for the USDA Rural Development Home Loan:
1. Borrowers must qualify under the maximum household income cap
2. The home must be located in a USDA eligible region/address
3. All borrowers must have minimum 580 Credit Score
1 Borrowers must not exceed the annual household income requirement For example. a family of 1-4 must not exceed a household income greater than $104,650 annually in most areas. Some higher cost areas of California and Washington State have higher income thresholds. We recommend a quick 5 minute phone call to discuss your ‘total household income' under USDA guidelines. Contact Brian Skaar at 760-752-4480 direct.
2 Borrowers must purchase a home in a USDA-RD approved region/address. You can search by map or address. Below is a link where you can by-pass the map and type in the physical address to get instant verification - Verify a USDA eligible address. I always recommend that my clients work with a Real estate agent that understands the USDA Rural Development Program. From helping you find and locate a USDA RD eligible home, to understanding the funding and closing process, it is key that your agent understand this program.
3 USDA Credit Score Guidelines. The USDA program is about as "flexible" as any loan program available today. In some cases, borrowers may even qualify with collections, or a recent bankruptcy. We require a 580 minimum middle credit score, however these details change. call for updates.
