For Kentucky homebuyers the no money down USDA Loan Program offers affordable
mortgage financing for moderate income households purchasing a house in a designated USDA
Rural area as determined by the
Rural Housing Service (RHS). Income and property location guidelines for the USDA Loan Program require that the:
 | Household must have a moderate income not to exceed USDA Program county limits based on a household size of one to four or five and more family members. |
| The house must be located in a designated RHS USDA Rural approved area. Homebuyers should not assume that the term “rural” means the USDA Home Loan program is only available in farming communities.Many areas approved by the RHS for the USDA Loan Program are residential areas, near major cities, with a complete absence of any local farms. |
By purchasing a home located in a USDA Rural area, USDA Loans allow qualified homebuyers the ability to buy a house with:
No Money Down – 100% USDA Loan Financing – No Monthly Mortgage Insurance – Flexible Credit Approval – Secure 30 Year Fixed Rate Mortgage – Unlimited Seller Closing Cost Help Allowed.

Loans are limited to applicants with incomes that do not exceed state and local Rural Development (RD) median income limits and property that is designated as rural by Rural Development.
