Great news!

keep in mind great 1st time buyer programs exist -

USDA Rural housing - no money down
FHA - small 3.5% down payment
VA - if qualified Veteran - no money down
95% conventional in CA - MI restrictions - great program.

interest rate improvement -

we have broken some major barriers.
with allot of negative economic news last week and this week, i felt it was only a matter of time. lets see if we can hold rates steady for the buyers and homeowners waiting for that perfect rate to place a lock.

USDA Rural Housing

if you are considering purchasing a home and have little down payment; if you are like me, you want to keep you savings liquid, the USDA Rural Housing program is a great option. this program allows 100% financing on a stable 30 year fixed rate. the program does have geographical area limits and income limits based per county.

the benefit explained:

  1. No down payments.
  2. Repairs maybe financed, if contract price is below appraised value.
  3. No monthly mortgage insurance.
  4. low guarantee fee of 2% compared to VA's funding fee of 2.15% or 3.3%.
  5. low, low fixed rates.

if you have interest in the USDA Rural Housing loan program,
