Conventional Loans

A conventional mortgage is a home loan that isn’t backed by a government agency. When most people talk about conventional mortgages, they are referring to conforming mortgages, which are loans that 'conform' to guidelines established by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. These two government-sponsored entities (GSEs) purchase loans from lenders and then sell them to investors in what are called 'Mortgage Backed Securities.’ By purchasing these loans, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac free up the lender's money so they are able to lend it again which makes mortgages more widely available.

  • • Wide variety of terms available

FHA Loans

The Federal Housing Administration (FHA) was established in 1934 to help increase home sales during the Great Depression. In current times the FHA's role is to financially back home loans to mitigate much of the risk of non-payment and foreclosure to private lenders. It’s important to note that the FHA is NOT a lender, but a government entity created to insure your loan. With an FHA mortgage, your loan comes from NRL and is insured by the FHA.

  • Advantages
  • • Smaller down payment
  • • Less restrictive credit requirements than conventional loans
  • • More lenient on past significant credit events such as
  • foreclosure and bankruptcy
  • • Insured by the Federal Housing Administration
