Conventional Loans

Conventional loans are the most common mortgage type. They're not backed by the government, which means they often offer more flexibility on property types and loan amounts — and competitive rates for buyers with good credit.

  • Down payment as low as 3% (first-time buyers) or 5%
  • No upfront mortgage insurance premium
  • PMI removable once you reach 20% equity
  • Fixed rates: 10, 15, 20, or 30 years
  • Adjustable-rate options (5/1, 7/1, 10/1 ARM)
  • Conforming loan limits up to $806,500 (2025)
  • Jumbo options above conforming limits
  • Primary, second home, and investment properties

Best for: Buyers with credit scores 620+ and steady income who want the most loan flexibility.

Bank Statement Loans

Self-employed borrowers often write off business expenses that make their taxable income look low on paper — even if cash flow is strong. Bank statement loans solve that by qualifying you on actual deposits instead.

  • Personal or business statements accepted
  • No tax returns or W-2s required
  • Loan amounts up to $3M+
  • Primary residence, second home, investment
  • Credit scores 620+
