What is a USDA Mortgage?

A USDA mortgage is a 100% home loan available in rural and suburban parts of the country. USDA mortgages are known for low mortgage rates, discounted mortgage insurance, and no down payment minimums.

A Longer Definition: USDA Mortgage

USDA mortgages are no-money-down home loans for buyers in rural USDA-eligible areas. USDA loans are backed by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), which created the program after World War II.

For eligible home buyers, USDA mortgages often offer the best combination of interest rate, monthly cost, and down payment.

82.0% of USDA home buyers meet the definition of first-time home buyer.

The program is modeled after two other successful housing programs: the FHA loan and the VA loan, which showed how government agencies can help reshape homeownership.

Like the FHA and VA loan programs, the USDA mortgage program:

  1. Builds and strengthens communities
  2. Creates new jobs for Americans
  3. Generates additional state and local tax revenue

Rural Designations

The USDA mortgage is available in rural areas only and is sometimes called a Section 502 mortgage because the agency borrows its definition of rural from Section 502 of the Housing Act of 1949.

That law defines rural communities as having fewer than 2,500 residents and not linked to a major city; of being rural “in character” with less than 10,000 residents; or, with less than 20,000 residents not related to a metropolitan statistical area.

Then, in 2020, the Census Bureau added additional criteria to distinguish between rural and urban areas.

  • Fewer than 2,000 housing units or 5,000 people
  • Fewer than 500 residents per square mile
  • Not more than 425 housing units per square mile
  • Not within a half-mile radius of an airport with 2,500 passengers or more per year

91 percent of the United States is within the USDA boundary, according to the USDA Eligibility Map.

The USDA Mortgage Programs

The USDA housing program includes two loan types: the Guaranteed Loan program for higher-income households and the Direct Loan program for lower-income households. There is a third program for home repairs.

The USDA Guaranteed Loan Program

The official name of the USDA Guaranteed Loan program is Section 502 Single Family Housing Guaranteed Loan Program. According to the agency, the Guaranteed Loan Program accounts for 90 percent of USDA loans made each year.

The USDA Guaranteed Loan program is the catch-all USDA mortgage. It allows for 100% financing without mortgage insurance and lets buyers come to closing with no money whatsoever.

Section 502 Guaranteed Loans are available through mortgage lenders, brokers, and retail banks. USDA loans require a minimum 620 credit score.

The USDA Direct Loan Program

The Section 502 Single Family Housing Direct Loan Program is less common and more limiting than the Guaranteed Loan program, accounting for just four percent of USDA loans made in recent years.

USDA Direct Loans are issued directly by the USDA, not through lenders, brokers, or banks. The USDA reserves Direct Loans for low- and very-low-income households, which account for 25.6% of USDA home buyers. Loan terms extend to 38 years to minimize PITI monthly payments, and buyers must partake in credit education.

The USDA pegs Direct Loan interest rates. Since November 2024, USDA Direct Loan mortgage rates are 4.875 percent. By comparison, current mortgage rates for a 30-year conventional loan average 6.375%.

The USDA Home Repair Loan Program

The USDA Section 504 Home Repair program makes loans up to $40,000 to help elderly, disabled, and low-income homeowners maintain the safety and livability of their homes. USDA Home Repair loans term for 20 years at a fixed interest rate of 1%. They’re for existing homeowners only.

Annual Fees 0.35% of Loan Size $0
Max Loan Size No Limit Up to $776,600
Minimum FICO 620 620 or Lender Discretion
In-Ground Swimming Pools Allowed Not Allowed
Upfront Loan Fee 1% of Loan Size None

USDA Mortgage Qualification Standards

To qualify for a USDA loan, home buyers must meet typical mortgage guidelines and special agency requirements, such as buying a home in the USDA Eligibility Map.

Eligible home buyers must also:

  • Purchase a primary residence in a non-urban census tract
  • Use a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage (or 38-year for Direct Loans)
  • Earn a low or moderate household income
  • Carry a credit score of at least 620
  • Be a U.S. citizen or permanent resident alien

The USDA enforces maximum income limits by area, requires home buyers to complete a certified homeownership education course, and does not allow adjustable-rate mortgages.

Common Questions About USDA Mortgages

What are today’s USDA mortgage rates?

USDA mortgage rates change daily with mortgage-backed securities and market conditions.

Are USDA mortgage rates good?

Yes, USDA mortgage rates are nearly always lower than conventional, FHA, and VA mortgage rates. For example, mortgage statistics show USDA mortgage rates average 24.9 basis points below conventional mortgage rates and 26.7 basis points below FHA mortgage rates.

Do USDA loans require a down payment?

No, the USDA mortgage program allows 100% financing on all homes in eligible areas. Home buyers aren’t required to make a down payment.

Do USDA mortgages require mortgage insurance?

No, USDA mortgages don’t require mortgage insurance, but the USDA charges a one-time, 1% guarantee fee at closing and adds a recurring 0.35 percent fee to USDA mortgages per year. The setup is similar to the FHA mortgage with its upfront and annual mortgage insurance premiums.

Can I add closing costs into a USDA mortgage?

Yes, the USDA Mortgage program lets home buyers add closing costs to their mortgage principal balance – even if the balance exceeds 100% of the home’s purchase price. The USDA also permits seller concessions to help buyers get a lower mortgage rate.

Are USDA mortgages assumable?

Yes, USDA mortgages include an assumption clause, meaning that a future buyer of your home can purchase the home and the mortgage simultaneously, retaining your interest rate and loan term. Assumable mortgages can raise a home’s resale value when interest rates rise because the payment isn’t subject to current mortgage rates.

What types of homes can I buy with a USDA mortgage?

Home buyers can use USDA mortgages to finance 1-unit homes that are standalone, manufactured, modular, or condominiums.

Is there a minimum property size requirement for a USDA mortgage?

The minimum allowable home size for USDA home loans is 400 square feet for manufactured properties.

Can I get a USDA mortgage after a Chapter 7 bankruptcy?

Home buyers with a Chapter 7 bankruptcy in their credit history can apply for a USDA mortgage after a 3-year waiting period from the discharge date. This new allowance is effective from 2024.

Can I get a USDA mortgage after a Chapter 13 bankruptcy?

Home buyers with a Chapter 13 bankruptcy in their credit history can apply for a USDA mortgage after a 12-month waiting period after their debt restructuring plan is complete. This new allowance is effective from 2024.

Does the USDA use mortgage loan limits?

The Rural Housing Development Home Loan program enforces a maximum loan size by county, called the USDA Loan Limits. Home buyers can mortgage as much of their homes as their household income and monthly debts support within these limits.

Can I convert my home with a USDA mortgage to an Airbnb or VRBO short-term rental property?

USDA loans are for primary residences only. Homes cannot be converted into short-term rental properties.

How much are USDA mortgage closing costs?

Closing costs for a USDA loan vary by mortgage company and state. Closing costs are generally between 0-2% of the loan size.

How do I apply for a USDA mortgage?

Home buyers can apply for a USDA Guaranteed Loan online with a mortgage lender, or in-person at a bank branch office. Direct Loans for very-low-income borrowers require a direct application with the USDA.
