USDA Loans FAQ
How do I know if a home is USDA-eligible?
USDA maintains an eligibility map by address. Many suburban areas qualify, not just remote rural ones — a broker can check your target neighborhoods.
Are there income limits?
Yes. USDA loans are for low-to-moderate income households, with limits that vary by county and household size.
Is there mortgage insurance?
USDA loans have an upfront guarantee fee and a smaller annual fee — generally cheaper than FHA's MIP.
