Union Home Mortgage Named Top Lender for USDA Rural Development Program in Pennsylvania

STRONGSVILLE, Ohio–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Union Home Mortgage (UHM) ranked first in Pennsylvania in terms of loan volume for the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Rural Development’s Single Family Housing Guaranteed Loan Program for 2021, improving upon a fourth-place finish in 2020. The 100% financing program helps lenders collaborate with eligible households living in rural areas to make homeownership a reality.

“Everything we do at UHM is guided by the belief that homeownership should be accessible to everyone,” said Rick Cardinali, UHM’s Regional Manager in Pennsylvania. “Our climb up the rankings affirms the continued dedication of our local UHM Partners to help customers select the best lending solution to achieve their personal goals. UHM is honored to have a strong partnership with USDA Rural Housing and Development, which is strengthened by our shared vision of helping America prosper through the creation of homeownership opportunities.”

The announcement coincides with the celebration of National Home Ownership Month each June.

The USDA Rural Development Single Family Housing Guaranteed Loan Program provides eligible applicants mortgage options that require no money down when purchasing a primary residence. Additional program details are available from the USDA.

This latest recognition further strengthens UHM’s position as a leading lender of USDA programs within our footprint. Last year, UHM ranked 10th nationally and claimed a top-five spot in three Midwestern states in the same USDA Rural Development loan program category.
