Illinois USDA Loan Rates, Closing Costs & Stats

USDA loans are zero-downpayment loans targeted towards lower-income households in rural areas.

They can have subsidized rates, making them very competitive in terms of cost, but they have more stringent standards on who is eligible as well as specific covenants such as only being available in rural areas and limits on home size.
