What Is a Conventional Home Loan?

A conventional loan is a mortgage offered by private lenders, like banks or credit unions, and is not insured by a federal government agency. Since a conventional home purchase loan meets the requirements of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, it's considered a conforming loan.

 

Benefits of a Conventional Purchase Loan

Whether you're interested in buying a primary home or rental property, individuals with good finances, credit, and sufficient down payment funds can take advantage of the benefits of a conventional purchase loan, including:

  • Ability to get a fixed rate or adjustable rate: With a fixed rate, your interest rate will remain the same throughout the mortgage. While an adjustable rate will fluctuate over time.
  • Flexible terms: Whatever your home buying situation, these loans offer flexible terms, making it easy to find a solution that meets your specific needs.
  • More flexible credit and income requirements: Compared to conventional mortgages, VA loans are more accessible to those with less-than-perfect credit scores or lower income levels.
  • Low interest rates: While you can typically expect to make a larger down payment, this loan will help you have lower interest rates each month.

 

Who Qualifies for a Conventional Home Loan?

Conventional home loans tend to have stricter credit requirements than compared to loans backed by the government, which is why they're an excellent choice for individuals with good or excellent credit.

Along with credit history, lenders will consider additional factors like monthly income and debt-to-income ratio. Since these loans will also require a larger down payment, having sufficient funds is another consideration.
