Making dreams come true with zero down mortgages
We don’t think that saving for a down payment should be the reason you put your dreams on hold. We can help you buy your dream home with a zero down mortgage loan. You’ll not only be able to afford a home sooner, you’ll probably be able to afford more home. With a zero down mortgage, the amount of loan you can qualify for is determined by your ability to make your monthly payments rather than how large a down payment you’ve saved. And, for most buyers, this means qualifying for a larger loan.
Buying a home is something we all dream about, usually for years. You may have saved money for a down payment, but just don’t have enough to buy your dream home. If that’s the case, a USDA loan may be right for you.
Rural Housing Service (RHS) was created in 1994 as a result of the Department of Agriculture Reorganization Act to meet housing and community development needs of rural America.
More rural families and individuals may be able to become homeowners with the help of the Rural Housing Service Programs. The USDA Rural Housing Service has various programs available to aid low- to moderate-income rural residents to purchase, construct, repair, or relocate a dwelling and related facilities. USDA rural housing loan programs allow qualified homebuyers to get loans with minimal closing costs and no downpayment.
Section 502 Rural Housing Guaranteed Loan Program
Under the Guaranteed Loan program, the Rural Housing Service guarantees loans made by private sector lenders. A loan guarantee through RHS means that, should the individual borrower default on the loan, RHS will pay the private financier for the loan.
The purpose of this loan program is to enable eligible low- and moderate-income (up to 115 percent of the Area Median Family Income) rural residents to acquire modestly priced housing for their own use as a primary residence. The program is available for the purchase and repair of existing and newly constructed dwelling.
There is no required down payment, but families must be able to afford the mortgage payments, including taxes and insurance. In addition, applicants must be without adequate housing and be unable to obtain credit elsewhere, yet have acceptable credit histories.
Loans are made for up to 30 years. To determine eligibility or to apply for a loan, contact any RHS approved lender or your Rural Development State Office.
