A Breakdown of the Loans We Offer

Conventional
A great option for first time home owners, a conventional loan comes with a variety of down payment options and advantages for bowers who qualify. A conventional loan might be a good fit if you have a high credit score and are able to put a large amount of the cost of the home down as a down payment. This type of loan is the easiest way to save money on your monthly mortgage bill in the long term and would most likely go through a private lender.
Jumbo
Are you dreaming to upgrade to a more high-end home in one of the nation’s pricer housing markets? Our jumbo loans will enable you to borrow more than conventional loans and with interest rates that are more competitive. If you have excellent credit and can put down anywhere between 10 to 20% down payment, a jumbo loan might be the perfect option for you.
FHA
Prospective home owners who want to buy a home but might not have a lot of money saved up for a down payment or closing costs should look into an FHA loan. A FHA (Federal Housing Administration) loan offers fixed-rate mortgages, adjustable-rate mortgages, and home equity conversion mortgages. Streamline Mortgage can talk you through which type of FHA mortgage is the right fit for you. Our FHA loans only require 3.5% down payment with fewer rates that will make your dream of being a home owner a reality.
VA
If you are a service member, veteran or eligible surviving spouse, Streamline Mortgage wants to make it our goal to help you become a home owner. That is why VA loans at Streamline Mortgage offer a $0 down payment with flexible rates and loan limits. VA loans were first introduced as part of the GI Bill in 1944, are supported by the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs and are issued by a private lender. 8% of home purchases in the first quarter of 2019 were obtained with a VA loan.
Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI)
Vs. Mortgage Insurance Premium (MIP)
When taking out a mortgage with a lower down payment, PMI protects lenders from risk of a default payment on a loan or foreclosure. PMIs also allow buyers who cannot afford a high down payment to obtain a mortgage at affordable rates. The loan amount will determine the cost of a PMI, but it would usually cost about 0.5% to 1% of the loan amount.
If you are applying for an FHA loan and your down payment is less than 20% you will need a Mortgage Insurance Premium or MIP. MIP can be assessed upfront by the FHA at closing, or can be calculated annually and paid in 12 installments. The payment amount will depend on the amount of the loan.
