Rural counties are defined as those with populations under 10,000, as certified by the Secretary of State on July 1 of the preceding year.

Example - $200,000 Appraisal

HLG provides from 80% of the appraised value up to the loan amount or 125% of the appraised value, whichever is less, subject to an overall limit of $100,000.

If the loan amount is $225,000, the guaranty is $65,000 (80% of the appraisal up to the loan amount because the loan amount is less than 125% of the appraisal)
If the loan amount is $250,000, the guaranty is $90,000 (80% of the appraised value up to the loan amount because the loan amount is equal to 125% of the appraisal)
