Conventional Mortgages
Conventional mortgages provide the consistency and flexibility many homeowners need to purchase their dream home with a low downpayment and several loan terms available.
What is a Conventional Loan?
As the most popular loan type, conventional loans fit a variety of properties and buyers. Unlike other loan types, conventional loans aren’t backed by a government agency. Instead, they meet the downpayment and income requirements for Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae.
