Factual FAQ

Direct answers, no call-center scripts.

How do I know if a property is USDA-eligible?

+

Property eligibility is determined through USDA's official eligibility resources. The screening tool links to the official map so you can review a location; a complete loan review is still required.

What are the income limits?

+

USDA household-income limits vary by location and household size and can change. Current limits and the program's income calculation must be verified for the specific household and property.

Can I use USDA for an investment property?

+

USDA guaranteed housing financing is for an eligible primary residence, not an investment property. Other financing paths may be discussed separately based on the complete scenario.
