Loan Options
Choose the loan that fits your situation. We will guide you through every option to find your perfect match.
Best for:
Compare the two most popular first-time buyer programs side by side.
Conventional loans are no longer just for 20% down payments. With first-time buyer programs like HomeReady and Home Possible, you can put down just 3% and still enjoy competitive rates and flexible terms. Best of all, your mortgage insurance cancels automatically once you build 20% equity.
As low as 3% for first-time buyers. On a $300,000 home, that is just $9,000 down.
Private mortgage insurance (PMI) drops off automatically at 20% equity. FHA MIP often stays for life.
With a 720+ credit score, you will qualify for the best available rates and lowest PMI costs.
FHA loans are designed to make homeownership accessible to more Americans. With lower credit requirements, higher debt-to-income allowances, and the ability to use 100% gift funds for your down payment, FHA removes barriers that might otherwise keep you renting.
Qualify with credit scores as low as 580. Even 500-579 may work with 10% down.
Your entire 3.5% down payment can come from family gifts. No minimum borrower contribution required.
Only 2 years after Chapter 7 bankruptcy or 3 years after foreclosure vs. 4-7 years for conventional.
