Conventional mortgage loan investors Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac offer first-time home buyer loan programs, known as HomeReady and Home Possible respectively. There are income limits and credit requirements that need to be met to qualify. These programs offer more favorable interest rates, lower private mortgage insurance (PMI), and flexibility on the amount you can put down.

Similar to our gas prices, mortgage rates fluctuate frequently. To get a general idea of today’s mortgage rates, below is a quick look at current rate trends!

That said, these rates are not a direct quote, and you should expect your rate to differ from the ones listed below.

The Rural Development (RD) or USDA loan is a 0% down payment mortgage designed to promote homeownership in rural and suburban areas, making it an excellent choice for eligible buyers in the Midland region.

USDA loans are eligible in Midland if you meet the income, household, and property requirements.

To qualify for an RD/USDA loan, applicants must meet specific income requirements, which vary based on household size and location. Additionally, the property being purchased must be situated in an eligible rural area as outlined by the USDA map. Fortunately, many areas surrounding Midland fall within these designated zones, offering an incredible opportunity for 0% down payment financing.

This program is particularly beneficial for first-time homebuyers or families looking for affordable housing options.
