A loan officer can compare conventional options with FHA, VA, USDA, jumbo, or other programs when relevant.

Who Qualifies?
Conventional eligibility is determined by the applicable automated or manual underwriting rules and the complete borrower/property profile. Credit, debt-to-income ratio, reserves, down payment, occupancy, and property type can all affect the options available.
Compare total cost, not just the advertised interest rate. Points, lender credits, mortgage insurance, loan term, and expected time in the property can materially change which option is the best fit.
