Get a USDA loan to buy land and build a house

[GoAggieGo.]

We used to sell a shytload of homes in McDonough back in the day with USDA Financing. More black folk should take advantage of USDA

but people not trying to live out in the woods like that

I get it, but I prefer it. My primary residence is in the metro; South Fulton, Fulton county. I bought that spot up there, the acworth area.

I stayed out there in the fayette/Henry area for a little while. Used to work in McDonough, and like it out there there. I don’t need to be in the city.

You built and sold homes personally?

had a brokerage firm that specialized in new home construction. The hardest selling point was getting people to accept longer commute times.

I would recommend young folk to take advantage of it and sit on the property. If its USDA best believe there will be other incentives to get businesses out there. Those areas populate with time

yep. It ended up being “cheaper” for what we wanted and obviously brand new, so no maintenance issues from previous owners. The houses in Orlando were way out of our price range

I also have a 1.25 acres that I hope to build a farm. It’s umm….going

Based in what I read, I don't think USDA loan has to be rural

It doesn’t. We have a corner lot in a city. A smaller city , but not rural. The cost for the lot ( one of the biggest ones) was around $2k. My husband actually bought it without talking to me because it was gonna go. He made the right decision but I still had to give him hell

What school district you stay in? If I can ever afford it I’d love to stay in LeJardin or any of them subdivisions with big cribs in the Langston or Westlake area
