conventional mortgage

Traditional home financing

A conventional mortgage is a home loan not backed by a government agency like the FHA or VA.

These loans typically require higher credit scores and larger down payments but offer more flexibility in terms and property types.

They qualified for a conventional mortgage with 20% down.

The term distinguishes private-market loans from government-insured alternatives.
