Northeast Colorado Housing, Inc. 801 South West Street #25, Fort Morgan CO 80701 (970)-542-1221 Fax (970)-542-1222 TTY 800-659-2656 Dear: After talking with you, we think that a direct Section 502 single family housing loan through the Rural Housing Service (known as the Agency ) is a good housing loan for you. The Rural Housing Service is an Agency of the United States Department of Agriculture. We do not work for the Agency; we are an outside loan application packager. Northeast Colorado Housing Inc. will assist you in applying for a loan through the Agency. We do not guarantee that your loan application will be approved or funded by the Agency. For our services, you will pay a loan application packaging fee of no more than $1,500. The fee is due only if the Agency approves you for a loan and the loan goes to closing. Under certain circumstances, part or all of this fee may be included in your loan. Otherwise, we will assist you in finding an alternate means to cover the fee from other sources. To the extent other sources are unavailable, we will waive the fee. You are not required to work with a loan application packager to receive assistance from the Agency. You may work directly with the Agency and avoid the loan application packaging fee. Working with our organization provides you with the following benefits: We will act as a go-between for you and the Agency. We will make sure that your paperwork is in order, which should shorten the time it takes for the Agency to make a loan decision. To begin the process, each adult who will reside in the home must sign an Authorization to Release Information (RD Form 3550-1). This will allow us to obtain credit histories, verification of income received by all household members, and other documents needed for the Agency to make a loan decision. All information collected will be maintained with the highest degree of confidentiality. We look forward to working with you in preparing an application for an Agency Section 502 direct loan.
