Conventional
Conventional Mortgages are the most common and generally you can qualify with a minimum credit score of 620 and debt-to-income ratio of up to 50%.
FHA Loans
FHA Loans are insured by the Federal Housing Administration and allow a buyer to have a credit score as low as 580 and only a 3.5% down payment. If your credit score is between 500-579, you may still qualify with 10% down payment with some lenders.
USDA Loans
USDA Loans are insured by the US Department of Agriculture. They have lower mortgage insurance requirements along with options for no money down. But the home must be in a suburban or rural area in order to qualify. Not all lenders provide USDA loans.
VA Loans
VA Loans are insured by the Department of Veterans Affairs and offer some incredible benefits. You can purchase a home with zero money down, lower interest rates, no private mortgage insurance and are typically easier to qualify for.
Jumbo Loans
Jumbo Loans are used for a home purchase that will be more than the average loan amounts in the area. These are typically used with high-value properties and you will need a higher credit score and lower debt-to-income ratio to qualify.
