Rural Development Loan Application
What is an eligible rural location? The USDA Eligibility Site allows you to search for eligible rural areas or enter a specific address.
It's also important to note that any property purchased with a USDA loan must be located in an eligible rural area or small town. To determine if a property qualifies, you can consult the USDA's website which has an interactive map tool to help identify appropriate locations.
USDA Rural Development is not a lender advocate for any private sector. To find the best financial and service options, we encourage you to compare lenders. Rural Development staff will work with you to make sure your loan is approved by the lender.
Is there an application deadline? All year, applications for this program can be submitted to your local RD office.
