Is a Conventional Loan for Me?
One of the most common loans is the Conventional Loan. This loan commonly comes with a fixed-rate which means the interest rate will not change for the life of your loan. However, you must meet certain criteria in order to get approved for this loan. The reward for this process is your rates are typically lower than that of VA and FHA loans.
If you know you’ll be moving in a few years, an ARM (adjustable-rate mortgage) might be a better option for your situation. This conventional loan type offers a rate that can fluctuate over the life of the loan but offers the lowest rate to start. This will make your monthly principal and interest payments lower.
