WHY USDA RURAL LOANS ARE A GREAT CHOICE
USDA loans are a very attractive option for borrowers who want to purchase a home or refinance their current USDA mortgage. USDA loans are for rural areas but rural does not necessarily mean remote.

Many eligible homes are in close proximity to some of the nation’s fastest growing metro areas.
USDA financing is one of the only mortgages available other than those for members of the US military that offer zero money down. It is an excellent option for those with low to moderate incomes or less than perfect credit. Payments are kept affordable, thanks to the fact that the loans are 30-year fixed rate mortgages.
