    What is the primary benefit of conventional loans?

    Disclosure:

    *APR = Annual Percentage Rate.

    PAYMENT EXAMPLES DO NOT REFLECT AMOUNTS DUE FOR TAXES, HOMEOWNER'S INSURANCE AND PMI INSURANCE (PMI INSURANCE WILL BE REQUIRED IF YOU ARE BORROWING MORE THAN 80% OF THE APPRAISED VALUE OF THE PROPERTY). THEREFORE, YOUR ACTUAL PAYMENT OBLIGATIONS WILL BE HIGHER.

    Above APRs are based on loan amounts of $280,000. Above rates are applicable to loans secured by a 1-2 Family home which is the principal residence of the borrower(s). Different rates may apply for loans secured by Co-ops, Second/Vacation homes and 3-4 Family homes. Rates may be higher based on applicant’s creditworthiness. Rates and terms are subject to change without notice. Certain restrictions may apply. For more details, see our Rates page.
