What kinds of Conventional Loans are available?

Conventional mortgages fall into "conforming" and "nonconforming" loans.

Conforming loans observe the guidelines set by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, two government-sponsored establishments that fund the U.S. housing market. The best-known regulation has to do with the size of the loan. In 2022, the conforming loan limitation for single-family homes in most continental U.S. is $647,200. Higher-cost areas, such as Hawaii and Alaska, have greater limits, up to $970,800 for single-family homes.

Many nonconforming loans are jumbo loans for home buyers who need to borrow an amount higher than the conforming limit for the area.

Other nonconforming loans include those made to borrowers with poor credit, high debt or a recent bankruptcy, or homes with a high loan-to-value ratio (usually up to 90% for a conforming loan).

Can I get down payment assistance with a Conventional Loan?

Yes, you may be able to qualify for down payment assistance with a conventional home loan. In addition, government agencies and community programs offer services to buyers struggling with complex financial situations, no matter what type of financing they use.
