- Zero down payment is required, making it easy to move forward with your home purchase immediately.
- You will pay less for the USDA loan guarantee fee than you would for FHA mortgage insurance premiums (MIP).

We can tell you about these and other advantages of USDA loans in detail during your consultation.
Do You Qualify for a USDA Mortgage?
Arizona homebuyers who fit the following criteria may qualify for a USDA home loan:
- Your income does not exceed 115% of the median household income for your location.
- You are shopping for a home in a USDA rural zone.
What does the USDA say is a “rural” zone? You will discover that their definition is unexpectedly broad. In fact, for this reason, a USDA loan is often worth looking into even when you think it will not be applicable.
