Conventional fixed rate mortgages are traditional home loans not backed by government agencies, featuring interest rates that remain constant throughout the loan term.
Conventional fixed rate mortgages are traditional home loans not backed by government agencies, featuring interest rates that remain constant throughout the loan term. These loans typically require a down payment of 3-20% and are available in various terms, most commonly 15 or 30 years. Borrowers with good credit scores and stable income often qualify for competitive interest rates. Private mortgage insurance (PMI) may be required if the down payment is less than 20% of the home's value.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Conventional Loan program?
Conventional fixed rate mortgages are traditional home loans not backed by government agencies, featuring interest rates that remain constant throughout the loan term.
How do I apply for Conventional Loans with TPRG Capital?
Request a free quote or apply online, then a TPRG Capital loan officer will review your goals and recommend the best conventional loans option for your situation. Call (972) 679-1613 to get started.
Do conventional loans require mortgage insurance?
Only in certain situations. When mortgage insurance does apply to a conventional loan, it can typically be removed once you reach sufficient equity in the home — a key difference from FHA loans, where insurance usually stays for the life of the loan.
Can I use a conventional loan for an investment property?
Yes. Conventional financing covers primary residences, second homes, and investment properties. For rental properties, we often compare a conventional investment loan side by side with a DSCR loan to see which fits your goals better.
What credit profile works best for a conventional loan?
Conventional loans generally reward stronger credit with better pricing. If your credit is still rebuilding, an FHA loan or a Non-QM option may be a better starting point — we will compare all three for you at no cost.
Are conventional loans backed by the government?
No. Conventional loans follow guidelines set by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac but are not government-insured. TPRG Capital is a private lender and also offers government-backed programs such as FHA, VA, and USDA if those fit your situation better.
