Before you choose
Property location and household income limits must both qualify, and USDA approval adds time to the closing.
- Is this address in a USDA eligible area?
- Does my household income fall under the limit for this county?
- How long does USDA approval take with you right now?
How this list is ranked
Specialty evidence carries the most weight (production data, then lender page, then self-reported). Loan officers must be licensed in IN or have a branch there. Then branch location, years licensed and profile completeness. Disciplinary actions lower the score and are always shown. No paid placement. Methodology.
Same list as JSON: /api/v1/loan-officers?specialty=usda&state=IN. Not a lender. Not a referral service. Verify licenses at NMLS Consumer Access.
