What is a Conventional loan?

A conventional loan is a conforming traditional loan that meets the requirements set by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac. These loans make up the most common loans by homeowners as they often provide the most competitive rates and the most traditional qualification criteria. Because these are the most common loans, most lenders have down payments as low as 3% and great interest rates. Most purchasers for homes will qualify for and seek this loan.

These loans have:

  • Competitive interest rates
  • Standard and traditional qualifying metrics
  • Standard financing structures
