Program List:
-
Guaranteed Rural Housing Loans:
Section 502 Guaranteed Single Family Housing Loans are originated by approved
mortgage lenders to offer qualified moderate income households with affordable
home loan financing with a loan guarantee from USDA Rural Development.
-
Direct Rural Housing Loans:
The Section 502 Direct program provides loans to low- and very low-income
households to purchase or repair their existing home.
-
Mutual Self Help Housing Program:
USDA Rural Development provides grants to qualified nonprofit organizations and
public bodies that will aid very low- and low-income individuals and their
families to build homes in rural areas by the self-help method. Through the
program, groups of eight to twelve low and very-low income
families work together to build new homes with the coordination of the
sponsoring entity and under the supervision of a
professional contractor. The families perform roughly 65 percent of the
construction work to offset costs. Upon completion of construction, many of the
homeowners qualify for a USDA Rural Development low-interest, no money down
Section 502 Direct home loan for the remaining balance.
Contact the Area Office serving your county for more information about
participating in a local self-help program or about starting a new self-help
program as a public body or nonprofit.
-
Home Improvement/Repair Loans & Grants:
The Section 504 loans and grants enable very low income rural
homeowners to remove health and safety hazards from their homes, to improve or
modernize them, and to make them accessible for people with disabilities.
