Among other products, First Assured Mortgage offers Conventional Mortgages, from our network of high quality mortgage companies and banks.

A conventional mortgage is a type of loan that meets certain criteria set our by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.  These mortgages are not guaranteed by the government like FHA, VA, and USDA mortgages, but, they do require mortgage insurance if borrowing over 80% of the value of the house.  Since they all meet the criteria set forth by the GSE’s (Fannie and Freddie) institutions can buy and sell them easily in the bond market thereby making cash available to make more loans.  This process is why the rates and terms available on Conventional Mortgages are so good compared to internal products offered by banks.
