Here is a cut & paste of PART of the announcement on the USDA website here in the Dairyland State of Wisconsin!
Please note that the numbers I will list below are "staggering" because last year, in the State of Wisconsin, $257 million dollars worth of USDA loans were done! As evidenced below, ALREADY, at the halfway point of the year, the USDA has guaranteed $145 million dollars worth of loans! That works out to SHATTER the record set last year by 33 million dollars!
Let's do the math right quick!
Ths is a whopping...
$122,466 per loan!
In rural communities, and not so rural communities!
Folks, that means THAT THIS YEAR ALONE in the State of Wisconsin, thanks to the USDA, there will be :
270 NEW HOMEOWNERS! Most of which are 1st time home buyers JUST UNDER THIS ONE PROGRAM!
Well, should we target this market or not?? Yes, I am laughing...OF COURSE WE SHOULD!!!!

TOP OBAMA ADMINISTRATION OFFICIALS HOLD 'RURAL TOUR' COMMUNITY FORUM IN WISCONSIN
Agriculture Secretary Vilsack and Transportation Secretary LaHood Discusses Administration Efforts, Collects Ideas on Strengthening Economic Development in Rural America
WEST SALEM, Wis., July 16, 2009 - U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack and Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood today visited Wisconsin and held a 'Rural Tour' community forum to discuss efforts by the Obama Administration to rebuild and revitalize rural America, listen to local residents talk about how the federal government can assist them, and discuss solutions to challenges facing their communities. This event follows the launch of the Obama Administration's 'Rural Tour' in June.
"To overcome challenges and be successful in a new, 21st century economy, President Obama has asked that we reach out to people in rural communities across the country to listen, learn and facilitate problem-solving," said Vilsack. "It is critically important to hear the thoughts, concerns and stories about each community's vision for its future and to collect ideas about how USDA can better serve these communities."
Here's your WOW moment........
USDA's Rural Development has helped guarantee 1,184 loans worth $145 million in the state of Wisconsin through the Single Family Housing Loan program. These loans help residents and producers to have access to the capital they need to keep rural communities strong.
In June, President Obama announced that Secretary Vilsack will lead the Administration's Rural Tour to visit rural communities in states throughout the country. Secretary Vilsack is scheduled to lead Rural Tour events with a variety of other top administration officials over the coming weeks and months in Alaska, Louisiana, Nebraska, New Mexico, North Carolina, Ohio, and Virginia. As the tenth similar forum Secretary Vilsack has led since being sworn, these upcoming events follow the rural listening sessions held earlier this year in Charlotte, Mich., Concord, N.H., Wattsburg, Pa., Danville, Ind., Geneseo, Ill., Harrodsburg, Ky., Ludowici, Ga., Portageville, Mo., and Brush, Colo.
All Americans can follow the Rural Tour's progress on a new website, www.RuralTour.gov or on Twitter at www.twitter.com/RuralTour .
