Conventional loans are mortgage loans offered by non-government sponsored lenders. A conventional (or conforming) mortgage adheres to the guidelines set by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. It may have either a fixed or an adjustable rate.
In 2016, Conventional Financing is available with only 5% equity (or 5% down payment) for loan amount up to County Limits. All Counties allow up to 417,000 and several counties in California allow higher amounts (maximum 625,500.)
Conventional loans are the most commonly used program. Courtesy Mortgage is able to follow Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac guidelines directly without any “overlays.”
