Farm Bill Extends USDA Rural Housing Program

Yesterday the Senate approved the “Farm Bill” which was approved last week by the House. What does this mean for Ocala(Outside city limits) and surrounding areas including Silver Springs, Anthony, Fellowship, Belleview, Sparr, Anthony, Fort McCoy and many more Marion County locations. USDA home loans provide Section 502 loans which are primarily used to help low-income individuals or households purchase homes in rural areas. Funds can be used to build, repair, renovate or relocate a home, or to purchase and prepare sites, including providing water and sewage facilities. The maps below show the current eligible areas and the future eligible areas. Notice I don’t like to talk about the areas that are not included because there are so many that are included. If you need help figuring out which loan program fits best for you contact me, Duke Rountree 352-572-1739(Phone or Text) I have also included the local USDA office information below for additional details.
