Conventional Home Loans
What is a conventional loan?
Conventional mortgages are not backed or insured by government agencies, such as the Federal Housing Administration, Department of Veterans Affairs, or U.S. Department of Agriculture. As such, the home buyer is typically responsible for any required mortgage insurance payments.
Find the right loan for you
The right loan program depends on many factors: down payment, credit, your monthly budget, and more. Talk to a loan expert at ShayMak Mortgage to find the best home financing solution for you and your goals.
Why Try a Conventional Loan?
Conventional loans can offer a variety of advantages, such as lower interest rates, varied down payment options, different fixed-rate mortgage terms, and reduced mortgage insurance. If you pay mortgage insurance with a conventional loan because you put down less than 20%, you usually can cancel the MI once the principal balance of the loan reaches 20% equity in the property.

Requirements of a Conventional Loan
The lender must assess your credit score, debt-to-income ratio, income, and cash reserves when considering a conventional loan. This is because the lender is taking on more risk since the loan is not backed by the government. To ensure that you can repay the loan, the lender needs to be confident in your financial situation.
