USDA Loans – Understanding the Basics

The USDA Loan Program is sought after by homebuyers due to 100% financing, affordable terms, and flexible credit qualifying. If you’re a homebuyer looking to purchase in a USDA eligible area, you may be able to qualify for this rural housing program. Metroplex Mortgage Services in an approved lender under the USDA Single Family Housing Guaranteed Loan Program and we are known for our experience and expertise with the USDA home loans.

What is a USDA rural home loan?

Per USDA Rural Development, “This program assists approved lenders in providing low- and moderate-income households the opportunity to own adequate, modest, decent, safe and sanitary dwellings as their primary residence in eligible rural areas.”

 

What are unique benefits of the USDA Loan Program?

  • 100% Financing: USDA loans offer no down payment, which when compared to FHA or Conventional programs, offers an immediate reduction in out of pocket expenses.
  • USDA Loans provide the ability to Finance Closing Costs and Pre-Paid items (Settlement Charges): USDA loans offer the ability to finance out of pocket settlement charges in cases when the appraised value is higher than the sales price. This is a unique feature that USDA loans provide. This added flexibility allows homebuyers the option to finance these expenses.
  • No Maximum Loan Limits: Mortgage amounts are determined by loan qualifying, thus not restricting qualified applicants by setting loan limits such as FHA and Conventional.
  • Flexible Credit Qualifying: USDA guidelines offer reduced waiting periods to qualify after a short sale, bankruptcy, or foreclosure when compared to conventional programs.

    Additionally, exceptions can be made for even shorter waiting periods depending on the merits of the situation.

    Manual underwriting can also be used for scenarios that may not be eligible for automated underwriting. In addition to utilizing the Guaranteed Underwriting System for Automated Approvals, Metroplex Mortgage Services also works with USDA manual underwriting.

    Remember, minimum credit conditions will apply.

  • NOT Restricted to Only First Time Homebuyers: While many assume that only first time homebuyers can be eligible, previous homeowners are also potential candidates provided they are purchasing a primary residence and meet the qualifying criteria.
