The Rural Housing program is a Federal loan program offered through the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). It is designed to help borrowers with low to moderate income obtain home financing in specified rural areas. The program has an upfront guarantee fee (which can be financed into the loan) and a low monthly mortgage insurance premium. This is a great loan for those seeking financing in rural areas who have no down payment or a minimum down payment.
