Conforming loans are typically loans that are underwritten to either Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac guidelines. Fannie Mae (Federal National Mortgage Association) and Freddie Mac (Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation) are classified as 'GSE's' (Government Sponsored Enterprises). They were created to purchase long-term mortgages to enable private lenders to lend more mortgage money into the general marketplace.
A conventional loan is defined as any loan that is not guaranteed or sponsored by a Federal Government agency; ie FHA, VA, and USDA loans are NOT conventional. All conforming (Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac) loans are conventional, but not all conventional loans (portfoilio, private lender niche loans, etc) are conforming.
Designed to offer long-term financing to American veterans, VA mortgage loans are issued by federally qualified lenders and are guaranteed by the U.S. Veterans Administration. The VA determines eligibility and issues a certificate to qualifying applicants to submit to their mortgage lender of choice.
With a fixed rate mortgage, the interest rate does not change for the term of the loan; the monthly payment is always the same. Payments on fixed-rate fully amortizing loans are calculated so that the loan is paid in full at the end of the term. In the early amortization period of the mortgage, a large percentage of the monthly payment pays the interest on the loan.

I can't say enough great things about Kevin Shanman and his team at Cornerstone Capital. Kevin is helpful, knowledgeable, competitive, extremely responsive, and will make sure you close. He and his team helped me get a mortgage with an extremely low interest rate, and he helped me refinance my property later on. The greatest thing about Kevin: He delivers. He says he will do it, he does it, and he makes it happen.
