Rensselaer County NY Mortgages & Home Loans, Including USDA Loans and Refinancing Options

Rensselaer County in the Capital District is bounded by the Hudson River on its west and the states of Vermont and Massachusetts on its east, offering both urban and rural living to its many residents and potential homeowners.

There are two cities in the County: the larger is Troy to the north of Albany, and the smaller is Rensselaer, directly across from Albany. Traveling east from these metropolitan areas, you soon find yourself amid smaller towns and villages, as well as more rural landscapes. This offers a wonderful opportunity for those homeowners who wish to be near the many businesses, attractions and events one can find in a city, but still enjoy a quieter or more rustic environment at home.

An additional benefit is that many of these outlying areas are eligible for USDA mortgages, a government-backed loan that offers significant benefits for those who qualify, including competitive interest rates and no money down. Communities located in this area include Averill Park, Hoosick Falls, Poestenkill, Sand Lake and Schaghticoke.

Maple Tree Funding can work with you to help you discover which mortgage and refinancing options are available to you, based on location and your personal financial profile. We work with dozens of lenders to help you find the most competitive rates, whether that’s for fixed-rate mortgages, government sponsored loans or non-conforming loans.
