Buying a home is a significant financial investment. One financing option that many buyers may not be aware of is a USDA Rural Development loan.

A USDA Rural Development loan is a government-backed loan that is available to those who are looking to purchase or build a home in a rural area. This type of loan is offered through the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and is designed to help individuals and families purchase or build a home in rural areas.

Benefits of a USDA Rural Development Loan

One of the key benefits of a USDA Rural Development loan is that it offers 100% financing, which means that there is no down payment required. Additionally, USDA Rural Development loans also offer competitive interest rates and flexible credit guidelines, making it easier for many buyers to qualify.

Another benefit of a USDA Rural Development loan is that it can be used to finance both the purchase of a home as well as the construction of a new home. This means that buyers can use a USDA Rural Development loan to finance the purchase of land, as well as the cost of building their dream home.

Eligibility for a USDA Rural Development Loan

To qualify for a loan, you must be a U.S. citizen or permanent resident, have a steady income for 2 years, and own a primary residence. Debt ratios and monthly payments, along with credit score, will impact loan eligibility. In Iowa, USDA Rural Development loans are available in many rural areas throughout the state. However, it’s important to note that not all areas are eligible for a USDA Rural Development loan. You can check your eligability and find more information on the USDA website.
