While many think that a 20% down payment is required for all conventional loans, many lenders now offer low down payment options.

Primarily, the federal government insures loans for FHA-approved lenders in order to reduce their risk of loss if a borrower defaults on their mortgage payments.Typically the borrower can be approved with 3.5% Down and credit scores as low as 580.
