What is a Conventional loan?
A conventional loan is a mortgage that isn't insured or guaranteed by a government agency. Most follow Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac guidelines ("conforming" loans), and 30-year and 15-year fixed terms are the most common.
How it works
- Loan amounts up to the conforming limit the FHFA sets each year; larger loans are jumbo.

- Fixed-rate and adjustable-rate versions are both available for purchase and refinance.
Who it's for
- Buyers and homeowners with established credit
- Buyers of a primary home, second home, or rental
- Borrowers who want to drop mortgage insurance once they build equity

What does it take to qualify for a Conventional loan?
Full documentation: pay stubs, W-2s or tax returns, and bank statements. Guidelines are set by each lender, so requirements differ from one lender to the next.
Does a Conventional loan officer need a license in Missouri?
Yes. A Conventional loan is consumer mortgage credit, so the loan officer must be licensed to originate in Missouri. FundShift matches on the licensed states loan officers declare, and you can verify any loan officer at NMLS Consumer Access before you apply.
