Rural Housing Financing: The government is going to give me money for a home? What is this all about?

"The Housing Programs of USDA Rural Development works to improve the quality of life for rural Americans by ensuring that they have access to safe, well-built, affordable homes. Home-ownership builds economic stability and, over the long term, creates equity to finance education, business start-ups and retirement. People with equity in their homes not only take greater pride in them, they also become more involved in their communities."
