How to find a USDA-approved lender in Texas

Coverage: 254 Texas county guides · 194 USDA Active Lender rows · list updated September 30, 2026.

Searching for a USDA-approved lender in Texas usually means finding an Active Lender that participates in the Guaranteed loan program (SFHGLP) and will discuss your specific county property. Use this sequence to stay grounded in official eligibility checks and public directory sources.

1. Confirm property eligibility

Guaranteed loan property eligibility is address-specific. Before lender outreach, check the parcel on the official USDA eligibility map. Metro-fringe counties can mix eligible rural tracts with excluded denser zones.

2. Open your Texas county guide

RuralLenders.com publishes guides for all 254 Texas counties with successful HMDA compiles in our dataset. Each guide includes Market Volume Insights (county aggregate mortgage activity) plus the Active Lender directory. Examples:

3. Browse Active Lenders

Use the directory table on any county page or the home lender directory preview. The underlying USDA list is national; we do not invent per-lender Texas county volumes. Ask each lender about SFHGLP capacity, overlays, and timelines for your scenario.

4. Optional: anonymous Matchmaker

The AI Matchmaker offers educational orientation without consumer lead forms. It is not a loan application and does not replace underwriting.
