A conventional loan is a mortgage that is not insured or guaranteed by a government agency such as the FHA or VA.

Conventional financing offers a wide variety of loan structures and is commonly used for primary residences, second homes, and qualifying investment properties.

The required down payment depends on the loan program, property type, borrower qualifications, and other factors.

You may have multiple options, and we can compare them to show how different down payments affect your monthly payment and upfront costs.

Private mortgage insurance, commonly called PMI, may be required when the down payment is below certain levels.
