If you are shopping for a home in a rural part of in Louisville or throughout Kentucky or Florida, you may qualify for a special type of zero down mortgage called a USDA home loan.

This income-based loan features flexible credit requirements and affordable rates.

What is a USDA Home Loan?

A USDA mortgage is a type of loan that is guaranteed by the US Department of Agriculture.

In the past, the USDA loan program was called the “Single Family Housing Guaranteed Loan Program.”

By backing these mortgages, the US Department of Agriculture makes them less risky than comparable conventional loans.

It is that lower risk profile that makes the benefits associated with USDA home loans possible.

Benefits of USDA Mortgages in
Kentucky and Florida

If you qualify to take out a USDA mortgage, you can look forward to the following advantages:

You can move into your new home without making a down payment.
Your interest rates will be affordable.
You can successfully apply for this type of loan without a perfect credit score.
A high income is not necessary to qualify for a USDA mortgage (it would actually be prohibitive).

How to Qualify for a USDA Home Loan
in KY or FL

Following are the basic requirements if you want to apply for a USDA home loan:

Your income must be within 115% of the median household income for your area.
The home you want to buy must be in an area defined as rural by the USDA.

Don’t assume that the home you want to purchase is not in a rural area just because it is not surrounded by miles of farmland.

The USDA has a very generous definition for “rural,” and many homes you might think would not be acceptable actually are.

Apply for a USDA Mortgage in
Kentucky or Florida

During your consultation, we can assess your income to see if it fits within the limits for the USDA loan program.

We also can tell you whether you are shopping for a home in a rural zone.

Brady and his team were phenomenal in helping us secure a HELOC recently. They did a great job keeping us informed throughout the whole process and was able to secure us a competitive rate. Way better than our bank was offering. I’d highly recommend working with them for your mortgage needs!

Terrible service. Don’t bother if you aren’t making a ton of money. My bf and I have been together for years and have decided about 3 months ago we would like to try and see if we qualify to buy a home. We are young but work full time at reliable adult jobs. Also we have savings for a down payment. Not a ton but we qualify for FHA so I know we don’t need the usual 20%. Just trying to see what our options were. We worked with Kris/Kristal. We gave her all our info and had one phone call with her briefly about financing. She said she would contact us and let us know our budget options. Never heard back. Almost 3 months later and we aren’t interested in working with this company. I guess we don’t make enough money for her time. Would be nice to know next time instead of being led on.

I worked with Kris Raines during my homebuying experience and she was amazing to say the least! She took so much stress off of the whole process and really made it as easy as possible. She was very responsive very kind and very informative. I highly recommend working with her as she will make the process as smooth as possible for you. I felt she took very good care of me as a client she kept me informed of where we were at in the process as well as prioritized any questions I had and got back to me very quickly. I have three kids two dogs and was moving cross country from Washington to Florida so a lot going on. Kris took so much weight off of moving from me. I can’t thank her enough which is why writing this review because it’s the least I could do. If you are in the process of buying a home or looking to buy a home please get in contact with her because you will have an amazing experience!

We have had 3 contracts , first one fell through because it did not pass inspection, 2nd one was new construction that fell way behind and the 3rd one was our perfect home. Travis was there through all the ups and downs. He was always available to answer any questions we had.Danielle was our loan processor, she walked us through all the things we needed to get together. She would communicate with us and answer any questions we had.I would recommend Travis and Danielle to anyone, family and friends. This was by far the best experience in buying property that we have had in the last 30 years.Professional and friendly, the best.

Brady was so great to work with. I was going through a hard time personally during the financing of my first home. He went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of. He personally tended to things to make my life easier and to make sure nothing slipped through the cracks. His level of compassion and dedication is like no other. He made the loan process bearable during one of the darkest and most heartbreaking times of my life. I was blessed to get to work with him and hope to have the opportunity to work with him again on a future purchase one day.

I have had the luxury of working with AMS for my past 2 refinances. The first one I wanted to do a cash out refi. I went to a lender and they said they were not able to help me. I went to AMS, and Brady Webb completed the cash out refi and lowered my interest rate. I went back to them for my second refi and they lowered my rate yet again. They are very helpful and I would highly recommend them to anyone!
