All USDA loans (purchase and refinance) require a one-time Guarantee Fee that is added to the borrowers loan. The current amount of the USDA guarantee fee is 2%. Example â if a borrower was purchasing a home 100% financing for $150,000, the adjusted loan amount with the 2% USDA guarantee fee would be $153,000. $3,000 added to the base loan amount. In addition to this one time Guarantee Fee, USDA loans also require a annual fee that is added to the monthly mortgage payment. Basically the âannual feeâ is monthly mortgage insurance â or more commonly known as âPMIâ Again, like the above it can have many different names. The current amount of this fee is .5%.
The annual fee (monthly PMI) of .50% will remain unchanged. The upfront guarantee fee is a one-time fee that is charged by all government mortgage programs (USDA, FHA, VA) and commonly rolled into the borrowers total loan amount.
