3 Reasons to Consider a USDA Mortgage
- Rural homes in St. Anne, Illinois are often financed through USDA Rural Housing Loan programs. Although it is certainly not new, the USDA Rural Housing Loan program may be one of the most overlooked opportunities available to prospective home buyers. Established in 1949 by the US Department of Agriculture, its goal is to give residents of rural areas the opportunity to own a home and promote development in underdeveloped areas.
- There are certain eligibility requirements for both the borrower and the property to be purchased. Borrowers must meet certain income, credit and employment requirements while the home to be purchased must lie within the USDA’s Property Eligibility Map. Since the program began, over 2.7 million rural borrowers have become proud homeowners. Here are 3 compelling reasons why this is such an outstanding prospect for anyone thinking of buying a home:
- Rural does not mean remote Please do not assume that the eligible properties are all located miles and miles from civilization. A quick check with the USDA’s website will allow you to track down homes that meet the USDA guidelines. Guess what? Many of them are in close proximity to some of the nation’s fastest growing metro areas – including places surrounding major cities.

USDA Affordability
Unparalleled affordability St. Anne USDA financing is one of the only mortgages available other than those for members of the US military that offers zero money down (note: there may be some programs available in certain locations where 100% financing may exist). It is an excellent option for those with lower incomes or less than perfect credit. Mortgage insurance is not required and loans can be used to purchase or refinance. Monthly payments are kept affordable, thanks to the fact that the loans are 30-year fixed rate mortgages. More borrowers are eligible than ever before As part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act that came about in 2009, the guidelines for USDA home loans have become more streamlined and opened the door for higher eligibility rates. Borrowers must still meet certain income requirements and provide a credit report; however, the guidelines are not as strict as they were previously.

Saint Anne, of David’s house and line, was the mother of Mary and grandmother of Jesus according to apocryphal Christian and Islamic tradition. Mary’s mother is not named in the canonical gospels, but is mentioned as the daughter of Faqud in Quran. In writing, Anne’s name and that of her husband Joachim come only from New Testament apocrypha, of which the Gospel of James (written perhaps around 150) seems to be the earliest that mentions them.
The story bears a similarity to that of the birth of Samuel, whose mother Hannah (Hebrew: חַנָּה Ḥannāh “favour, grace”; etymologically the same name as Anne) had also been childless. Although Anne receives little attention in the Latin Church prior to the late 12th century,[2]
dedications to Anne in Eastern Christianity occur as early as the 6th century.[3] In the Eastern Orthodox Churches and Eastern Catholic Churches, she is revered as Hannah. In the Eastern Orthodox tradition, Hannah is ascribed the title Forebear of God, and both the Nativity of Mary and the Presentation of Mary are celebrated as two of the twelve Great Feasts of the Orthodox Church. The Dormition of Hannah is also a minor feast in Eastern Christianity. In Lutheran Protestantism, it is held that Martin Luther chose to enter religious life as an Augustinian friar after crying out to St. Anne while endangered by lightning.[4][5]
