What is a Conventional Loan?
There are no hard fast rules to define a conventional loan.
Most often, it's a general term used to describe a
home mortgage acquired with a sizable down payment (20 percent) and is not insured (such as those that require
private mortgage insurance) or guaranteed by a
government-sponsored entity.
