USDA Loans
USDA Rural Development loans are government-backed mortgages designed to promote homeownership in eligible rural and suburban areas, as defined by the United States Department of Agriculture.
Eligibility here is geographic before it is financial. The USDA designates which areas qualify, and the map is broader than the word “rural” suggests — a good deal of what North Texas considers small-town or edge-of-metro sits inside eligible territory, including places actively growing outward from Dallas–Fort Worth.
For borrowers who qualify, the appeal is direct: no down payment requirement, and income limits that admit a lot of working households rather than only the lowest earners. Because the USDA guarantees the loan, lenders can extend terms they would not otherwise offer on a no-down-payment purchase.
The constraints are real too. Household income caps apply and count everyone in the home, not only the borrowers. The property must be a primary residence. So the first question we answer is simply whether the address and the household both qualify — and we check that before you fall in love with a house.

What areas around DFW qualify for USDA loans?
More than most buyers expect. Many communities on the outskirts of the DFW metro qualify as USDA-eligible, even ones that feel suburban. Eligibility is address-specific, so send us a property and we will check it in minutes.
Are there income limits for USDA loans?
Yes. USDA loans include household income caps that vary by county and household size. If your income is above the cap, an FHA or conventional loan may fit instead — we will run both comparisons for you.
Is a USDA loan only for farms?
Not at all. USDA loans finance ordinary single-family homes in designated rural and suburban areas. No farming required — the program exists to encourage homeownership outside dense urban cores.
Is TPRG Capital a government agency?
No. USDA loans are guaranteed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, but the financing comes from private lenders like TPRG Capital. We handle the process; the USDA guarantee makes the favorable terms possible.
