Conventional Fixed-Rate Mortgages
The good, the bad and the beautiful
Conventional loans are traditional mortgage loans not insured or guaranteed by the federal government. They come in various forms, including conventional fixed-rate loans, which offer consistent interest rates and monthly payments over the loan term. These fixed-rate loans can further be classified into 15-year, 20-year, or 30-year terms, each with its own advantages and considerations.
Compared to FHA loans, conventional loans may be more challenging to qualify for due to stricter credit score and down payment requirements. However, they offer benefits such as lower mortgage insurance premiums and greater flexibility in terms of property type and loan amount. Many borrowers choose conventional loans for their competitive interest rates and the ability to avoid mortgage insurance once they reach a certain loan-to-value ratio.
Despite their advantages, conventional loans can have drawbacks, including high closing costs and the resetting of interest when refinancing. The interest on conventional loans is front-loaded or amortized, meaning borrowers pay significantly more interest in the early years of the loan. This front-loading results in borrowers paying more than double the original purchase price of the home over the loan term.
While conventional loans are not inherently bad, they can be inefficient in terms of interest payments and overall cost.
