What Are USDA Loans?

USDA loans are government-backed mortgages designed to help low- to moderate-income borrowers purchase homes in eligible rural and suburban areas. These loans are issued by approved lenders and guaranteed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), offering affordable financing with no down payment.

USDA loan is a government-backed mortgage designed for low- to moderate-income borrowers in eligible rural and suburban areas. It offers zero down payment, low interest rates, and reduced mortgage insurance costs, making homeownership more accessible.

To qualify for a USDA loan, borrowers must:

  • Purchase a home in a USDA-eligible rural or suburban area.
  • Meet income limits set by the USDA.
  • Have a credit score of 640 or higher (lower scores may be considered with additional documentation).
  • Demonstrate stable income and the ability to repay the loan.

USDA loans are available in designated rural and suburban areas. Borrowers can check eligibility by using the USDA property eligibility map or consulting with a lender.

Most lenders require a minimum credit score of 640, but borrowers with lower scores may qualify with strong compensating factors, such as low debt-to-income ratios or additional cash reserves.
