Rural Development Income Limits Increased

The Guaranteed Rural Housing program with Rural Development has always been a great loan. In the mad mortgage rush of previous years it had lost some popularity.

With the new income structure and the new income limits, the program will be even stronger.

Previously, income limits for many counties, including Hamilton County, TN, depended on the number of persons. There was a different income level for each additional person.

The new structure only has two income levels for the Guarantee Program: 1-4 persons and 5-8 persons. This increases the maximum income level for most families.

Additionally, effective also on 4/20 is the increase in the actual income limits. Previously for a 4 person family the income limit was $70,750.

The new limits for 2009, in Hamilton County are $73,600 for a 1-4 person family and $97,150 for a 5-8 person family.

Good news.
