The USDA home loan process is very similar to that of a conventional or FHA mortgage . The main difference is that your USDA Home Loan will be submitted the State’s USDA Field Office for review and final approval. From a client’s perspective USDA Rural Mortgage process is seamless. The mortgage lender underwriting the file will submit the loan to the USDA Field Office. Once the field office has completed its review the client will be notified and loan docs will be ready to sign.
