Q&A - Who is eligible for a USDA home loan?

QUESTION: How do I find out all the USDA eligibility requirements and if I’m eligible to get a USDA mortgage?

Sincerely – F. Polk / Clermont, FL

ANSWER: With USDA / Rural Development home loan eligibility there are a few main factors – household income and the property location. Each county in Florida has different household income restrictions. The USDA income limits are based on many factors like – number of dependants, disabilities, elderly, etc. Property location has to be what is determined “rural” by the USDA. Your location of Clermont and all the surrounding areas are eligible. You can contact us below to verify and check all your USDA eligibility requirements, each case and person is different, so it’s best to have this checked in advance. Remember, you do not have to be a first time home buyer to take advantage of the USDA mortgage. In addition, USDA financing can be used on any single family residence, no matter who the seller is. The home just has to be located in a USDA eligible area.

Once your USDA eligibility requirements are reviewed, the pre qualification process can start. The USDA pre qualification process is the time your credit, employment history, rent/living history, income, etc, are reviewed. Like all home loans, there are minimum standards that must be met when qualifying for a USDA home loan.
