Conventional Loans in Southlake, TX

What Is a Conventional Mortgage?

A conventional loan is a mortgage not backed by a government agency (like FHA or VA). Instead, it’s offered by private lenders and typically follows guidelines from Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac. These loans are ideal for buyers with good credit and stable income.

  • Competitive interest rates

  • Can be used for primary, secondary, or investment homes

  • Lower overall cost with strong credit

  • Variety of loan terms (15, 20, or 30 years)

  • No upfront mortgage insurance

  • Option to cancel PMI once you reach 20% equity

  • Fixed or adjustable rate options

  • Buyers with good to excellent credit (typically 620+)

  • Borrowers with steady employment and verifiable income
