What is a conventional mortgage?
A conventional loan is a mortgage that is not guaranteed or insured by any government agency such as the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) or the Farmers Home Administration (FHA) or the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). Conventional mortgages can be riskier for lenders as they are not backed by the federal government and can be harder to obtain.
What is an FHA mortgage?
With an FHA loan, the Federal Housing Administration insures the mortgage. The FHA is an agency within the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The FHA’s backing offers lenders a layer of protection, meaning that your lender won’t experience a loss if you default on the mortgage. They will be made whole by FHA mortgage insurance. FHA loans typically come with competitive interest rates, smaller down payments, and lower closing costs than conventional loans.
If you have a credit score of 580 or higher, you could be eligible for an FHA mortgage with a down payment as low as 3.5 percent of the purchase price. If your credit score is lower than 580, you still might qualify for an FHA mortgage, but the down payment would be at least 10 percent of the purchase amount.
