USDA Eligibility Metrics
USDA loans carry strict double-layer checkpoints: the property must fit geographic guidelines, and household earnings must remain under regional caps.
Map Match
The property must be located within a USDA-designated rural zone. Major metro cities are excluded, but outer communities qualify.
Household Income
Total household earnings cannot exceed 115% of the local median income. Deductions apply for dependents.
FICO Guideline
A score of 640 unlocks streamlined automated processing, though manual underwriting down to 600 is possible with clean credit histories.
Use Profile
Must serve strictly as your primary residence. Investment properties or vacation homes are ineligible.
