The USDA loan program is an excellent choice for some buyers offering up to 100% financing. The property should be located in an eligible area and there are some income limits. Your mortgage lender and realtor can work with you to ensure the property and lending requirements are met. The first step is to select a realtor and mortgage lender and begin the pre approval process.

You have to be in what the USDA would consider a Rural area. If you do live in a rural area and meet the USDA guidelines you could qualify. It is a very popular $0 down loan in many areas.

Yes, but it is considered a USDA loan rather than a voucher, which can be used to buy a house. The USDA offers loan programs for rural and suburban homebuyers to purchase homes without a down payment, promoting homeownership in less populated areas. Eligibility is based on income, credit, and location criteria.
