The U.S Department of Agriculture (USDA) is the governmental body responsible for providing loans and other services to rural America – which includes farmers and their families, ranchers, and people living in rural areas. The objective of USDA Home Loans is to help people across rural America prosper as they improve the quality of life for themselves and their communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They are mortgages issued by approved Rural Housing Service<\/a> (RHS) lenders like Trinity Oaks Mortgage, nationwide. What’s popular about these loans is that if you meet certain requirements, then you could be approved for 100% financing, more lenient eligibility requirements and competitive interest rates – due to the loan being guaranteed by the USDA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
