Conventional Loans

The most common type of prime loan you can use to purchase a property is called a conventional loan. Conventional loans conform to the maximum loan limits established by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Unlike certain other types of loans such as FHA loans, they are not backed up by government funds.

Typically, the timeframe for paying off a conventional loan will range anywhere from 10-30 years. Down payments may be as low as 3% or as high as 20%. Fees and terms governing conventional loans depend on a number of different factors, including your credit score, borrower profile, the property you are purchasing, the down payment you provide, and the lender you select.

Basic Qualifications for a Miami Conventional Loan

Borrowers who want to be approved for a conventional loan in Miami will need to meet the following requirements:

You must be purchasing a qualifying property, as stipulated above.
Conventional loans are for properties worth $453,100 or less.
You should have a solid credit score. The higher your score is, the better.
A higher score typically will qualify you for better rates, terms, and fees.
You need enough to cover your down payment.
Making a higher down payment can sometimes free you from the requirement to purchase private mortgage insurance. There are however some great opportunities available for favorable loan terms even with a lower down payment. Through our wide network of lenders, we can help you find a competitive loan even if you cannot afford a high down payment.
Your income-to-debt ratio is important as well.
Ideally, your debts should comprise less than 50% of your total income. There are some exceptions, however. If your assets are worth enough to offset any perceived shortcomings in your income-to-debt ratio, you should still qualify for a conventional loan.

I had the best experience working with Claudia Castano, she was the loan officer and our office acted as the closing agent on a transaction. We really work as a team, she made the process easy and we closed the transaction on time as she promised. The buyer was super happy. We look forward to work with Claudia again!read more
