USDA Loans For Low-Income Homeowners

Nazareth blogger Ross Nunamaker has the second best blog in the Lehigh Valley. If you're wondering why I make this bold statement, check out his informative post about some USDA loan programs for low-income homeowners. As Ross explains, Rural Development will lend as much as $20,000 at a 1 percent interest rate for repairs and home improvements. "These loans are limited to households whose income falls below 50 percent of the area's median income. For example a family of four, in Northampton County, with an adjusted household income earning approximately $32,950 could qualify for this program. For applicants that are 62 years of age or older, who have very low income and do not have repayment ability for a loan, the possibility of a grant exists. To determine eligibility visit this Rural Development site page." Gosh, this should cover more than a few county employees.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
