USDA Loan | Multiple Lender Applications

[James Potter]

Hi all! My wife and I are looking to relocate our primary residence to a coastal area eligible for USDA loans. We are right on the income threshold and want to be cautious with USDA. We already have one loan application in process. My question is... can I obtain three quotes, per se, for USDA loans simultaneously? I know that you can only have one loan with them, which is my intention. I just don't want to "rattle their cage," but, of course, want to lock in the best rate from the best lender. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
