Loans backed by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) can be used to purchase a primary residence in a rural area. But you don’t have to live on a farm on in the country to use it.

First-time home buyers should take advantage of unique opportunities designed to help them afford a home. There are state programs, tax breaks, and lower down payment requirements.
