$0 Down Payment Homeownership in Arizona
The USDA Rural Development loan program is one of the last remaining 100% financing options available to Arizona home buyers. It's designed to promote homeownership in designated rural and suburban areas.
Many people are surprised to learn that "rural" extends to many thriving suburban communities across Arizona. If you're looking to buy outside the major metropolitan cores, the USDA loan could be your best financial choice.

The Path to Affordable Homeownership
100% Financing
The most significant benefit of a USDA loan is the $0 down payment requirement, allowing you to keep more money in your savings for other expenses.
Reduced Costs
USDA loans typically feature lower monthly mortgage insurance premiums than FHA loans and lower interest rates than conventional loans.
Sellers Can Pay Closing
Under USDA guidelines, sellers are permitted to pay up to 6% of the purchase price toward your closing costs, which can further reduce your initial investment.
Eligibility Requirements
Property Location
The property must be located in a USDA-eligible area. Many parts of Maricopa, Pinal, and Pima counties (outside major city limits) are eligible.
Communities like parts of Buckeye, Maricopa, San Tan Valley, and others often qualify.
Income Limits
USDA loans are intended for moderate-income households. The income limits vary by county and the number of people in your household.
We can help you determine if your household income falls within the specified Arizona county limits.
