How to Acquire USDA Property Eligibility

Posted by articlelink01 on March 18th, 2014

Many homebuyers do not realize the great opportunity brought to them by the United States Department of Agriculture with the USDA home loan. The USDA Loan offers some of the lowest interest rates with no down payment requirements. The property must meet the guidelines set by the USDA property eligibility.

Some think that USDA home loans were made for farmers in the middle of nowhere, however this is not true. The program is available in MANY areas throughout the United States. You will be surprised to know what areas belong to this program. There are areas that are very close to the city, so there is no need to worry about the location. You need to become familiar with the eligible areas so you can ensure the homes you are looking at are in an eligible area. The USDA loan program allows for you to purchase an existing home or to purchase a brand new home from a builder. An appraisal inspection to the property is required just like any other home loan to ensure that it meets the codes and in good condition.

• The first thing that you need to do is to go to the USDA income and property eligibility website to find out if the property that you are looking at is located in an eligible area and to find out more about the USDA income limits.
• Once you confirm the property eligibility, the next thing to do is to submit a home loan request to the USDA Home Loan Website.
• You will need to provide your USDA Home Loan Specialist with personal documentation such as w2 forms, tax returns, pay stubs, divorce decrees, child support agreements, etc…
• The next step is to put an offer in on a home with a copy of your pre-approval letter and once your offer is accepted, the USDA Loan Process can begin.

If you want to own a home, but you do not have enough money or don’t want to put any money down, the USDA home loan will suit you. Be sure you check both the USDA Property Eligibility and the USDA income limits so you do not waste a lot of time looking at homes that are not located in an eligible area.
