Borrower Eligibility

USDA mortgages are not for everyone.  Applicants may have an income of up to 115% of the median income for the area. Area income limits for this program can be found with the link below.  Families must be without adequate housing, but be able to afford the mortgage payments, including taxes and insurance.   In other words, you cannot use a USDA loan to buy an additional property if your current property is considered adequate for the existing family.  In addition, applicants must have reasonable credit histories. Typically a 640 or higher credit score is required.
