Eligibility Requirements

To qualify for a USDA loan, both the buyer and the property must meet eligibility requirements. The property must be located in a USDA-designated rural or suburban area, and the buyer's household income must be within the USDA income limits for their county and household size.

Many areas outside of major Texas cities — including communities near San Antonio, Austin, and Houston — qualify as USDA-eligible. Joshua can help you check your property address and income eligibility quickly.
