It's been confirmed! The income limits in Lake County (and the entire Orlando area) for USDA Guaranteed Rural Development loans will go up to $70,750 for households from 1-4 persons and $92,400 for households from 5-8 persons. No false start anymore folks. We can start taking and processing applications immediately but cannot submit them to the USDA until 04/20.

Folks don't take this lightly. I did my preliminary research on this change when it was first announced and discovered EVERY FHA deal I had done would have qualified for RD. Why is this a big deal? RD has no monthly private mortgage insurance and can save our customers an average of $50-$80 per month.

Please communicate this to any buyers you had going FHA. In some cases it can mean the difference between qualifying or not, and of course feel free to call with any questions!
