Zero-down USDA Guaranteed Loans are the most popular rural development mortgage program in Pennsylvania. These loans are available for anyone with low to moderate income to purchase a home in approved rural areas with no down payment. Other USDA loan limits and resources can be viewed here:

USDA doesn’t set specific maximum loan limits for guaranteed mortgages. Instead, local limits are determined by a combination of the area USDA maximum income limit and the borrowers debt-to-income ratio. This approach means that guaranteed maximum USDA loan limits are fluid and based upon numerous factors, unlike low-income USDA Direct Loans, which have set maximum limits. The figures listed below are based on approximate calculations. Actual guaranteed maximum loan limits may vary.
