Conventional Loans

The Right Choice for Traditional Homebuyers

Conventional loans are one of the most popular mortgage options available today, offering competitive rates and flexible terms for borrowers with stable income and good credit. At Lender Capital Group, we provide customized conventional loan solutions designed to meet your unique financial needs. Whether you’re purchasing your first home, upgrading to a larger property, or refinancing your current mortgage, our conventional loan programs offer affordability and flexibility.

Unlike government-backed loans (like FHA or VA loans), conventional loans are not insured by any federal agency. As a result, they typically have stricter qualification requirements, but they offer more options in terms of loan amounts, interest rates, and repayment terms. Our team at Lender Capital Group will work with you to secure the best possible terms based on your credit profile and financial goals.

Why Choose a Conventional Loan?

No Upfront Mortgage Insurance

Unlike FHA loans, conventional loans do not require an upfront mortgage insurance premium. For borrowers who put down at least 20%, private mortgage insurance (PMI) can be avoided entirely.

High Loan Limits

With conventional loans, you can borrow up to $726,200 in most areas of California and even more in high-cost regions like San Francisco. This makes them ideal for buyers looking to finance homes in more expensive markets.

Competitive Interest Rates

Conventional loans often come with lower interest rates compared to government-backed loans, especially for borrowers with higher credit scores. This makes them an attractive option for those who qualify, potentially saving you thousands of dollars over the life of your loan.

Flexible Loan Terms

Conventional loans offer flexibility in choosing your loan term. Whether you prefer a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage for lower monthly payments or a 15-year mortgage to pay off your home sooner, we have options to suit your needs.

Investment and Vacation Homes

Conventional loans can be used not only for primary residences but also for second homes, vacation properties, and investment properties, offering greater flexibility in real estate investment opportunities.

Conventional Loan Qualifications

Conventional loans have more stringent qualification requirements than government-backed loans. Here are some of the typical criteria for qualifying:

Debt-to-Income Ratio

Your debt-to-income (DTI) ratio is a key factor in determining your eligibility. Most lenders prefer a DTI of 45% or lower, meaning your monthly debt payments (including the new mortgage) should not exceed 45% of your gross monthly income.

Credit Score

Most lenders require a credit score of at least 620 for a conventional loan, although higher scores can qualify you for better interest rates.

Down Payment

While many people assume conventional loans require a 20% down payment, you can actually put down as little as 3% for qualified borrowers. However, if you put down less than 20%, you may be required to pay private mortgage insurance (PMI).
