Conventional

Conventional Mortgage Loans

A conventional mortgage loan is a type of mortgage in which the underlying terms and conditions meet the funding criteria of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. About 35-50% of mortgages, depending on market conditions and consumer trends, are conventional mortgages. In other words, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac purchase 35-50% of all mortgages. Conventional mortgages may be fixed-rate or adjustable-rate mortgages. Conventional mortgage loans are typically only an advantage to borrowers with outstanding credit scores and low debt-to-income ratios.

FHA Home Loans

An FHA home loan is a mortgage issued by federally qualified lenders and insured by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA). FHA loans were originally designed for low to moderate income borrowers who were unable to make a large down payment. FHA loans allow the borrower to borrow up to 96.5% of the value of the home. The 3.5% down payment requirement can come from a gift or a grant, which makes FHA loans popular with first-time buyers.

VA Home Loans

A VA home loan is a mortgage loan in the United States guaranteed by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). The loan may be issued by qualified lenders for purchases and refinances of up to 100% Loan to Value.

The VA loan was designed to offer long-term financing to eligible American Veterans or their surviving spouses (certain restrictions may apply).The basic intention of the VA direct home loan program is to supply home financing to eligible veterans to help purchase properties with no down payment. Most single-family homes are eligible, and Peoples Mortgage may be able to help approve condos that are not currently approved by the VA. In either case, you will want to work with a Loan Professional to review each individual property.

The VA loan allows for up to 100% financing without private mortgage insurance. A VA funding fee is a percentage of the loan amount and is paid to the VA; this fee may also be financed. Since there is no monthly PMI, more of the mortgage payment goes directly towards qualifying for the loan amount, allowing for larger loans with the same payment.

VA Loan Features & Benefits

Loan Terms: Fixed Rate, ARM

You are eligible if you served under any of the following timelines and were honorably discharged:

2 years active duty

6 years reserves duty

90 days war time

181 days non-war time

Jumbo Home Loans

A Jumbo Loan is designed for those looking to go above the county limit. Due to the high number of defaults on these types of loans in the last few years, these guidelines are constantly changing and are usually very specific to the individual borrower and their financial goals. It is critical on these loans that borrowers complete a full loan application with their loan professional, as well as submit all documentation for review by an Underwriter well before placing an offer on a home. These borrowers always have outstanding credit and income, but that usually comes with intricate financial and tax structures. To avoid any headaches and to get aligned with the best loan product, it is best to get a full approval including a full review of the assets to be used in the transaction and the remaining reserves.

Reverse Mortgage Loans

With a Reverse Mortgage loan, borrowers over the age of 62 can convert their home equity into cash and defer the payment until their death, or until they sell their home. Each month, the interest is added to the loan balance, which can eventually rise to exceed the value of the home. Typically, the borrower, or their estate, is not required to repay any additional loan balance in excess of the value of the home. Reverse Mortgage Loans allow seniors to enjoy their golden years without a mortgage payment.*
