USDA loans are available through the U.S. Department of Agriculture. [Keep in mind, not all mortgage lenders offer USDA loans.] With the help of a USDA loan, you can buy a Knoxville home with 100% financing and still get a very good interest rates.
The only requirement is that you buy a home in a “rural” area.
