ABOUT LOAN
What is a
Conventional Loan?
Conventional loans are mortgage loans that aren’t backed by a government agency like the FHA, VA, or USDA. They are issued by private lenders and typically follow the guidelines set by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. These loans are a popular choice for borrowers with solid credit and financial stability.
Who is It Best For?
Good to excellent credit (typically 620 and above)
A stable income and employment history
The ability to make a 3%–20% down payment
A desire for flexible loan terms
BENEFITS
Benefits of Conventional Loans
Flexible Interest Rates
Conventional loans can offer more flexible interest rates, especially if you have a strong credit history.
Low Down Payment
Conventional loans are available for homebuyers with as little as 3% down, making them more accessible.
Privately Funded
Because conventional loans aren't backed by a government agency, lenders have more freedom to offer flexible options.
Higher Loan Limits
The lack of government involvement also means you'll usually be able to access more funds with a conventional loan.
