Câu hỏi thường gặp

What is the minimum credit score for a conventional loan in 2026?

Most lenders require a 620 FICO score as the minimum for conventional loans. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac allow flexibility via automated systems, but lender overlays keep 620 as the practical floor. Scores below that push you to FHA or VA options.

Does a 620 credit score get the best conventional loan rates?

No, 620 qualifies you but adds 1-1.5% to rates versus 760+, plus higher PMI ($260/month on $300K loan). Aim for 740+ to access prime terms and 3% down programs like HomeReady.

How does credit score affect PMI on conventional loans?

Higher scores mean lower PMI rates, $75/month at 760+ vs. $260 at 620 on a $300K loan under 20% down. PMI auto-drops at 78% LTV, a big edge over FHA's lifetime MIP.

Can I get a conventional loan with no credit score in 2026?

No, myths aside, all lenders pull FICO scores. Fannie/Freddie's "no minimum" update evaluates full profiles, but 620+ is standard in practice for conforming loans.

How long does it take to raise my credit score for a conventional loan?

Most hit 620 from 580 in 3-4 months by disputing errors, lowering utilization under 30%, and paying on time. Tools like Credit Booster AI speed it up with automated analysis and letters.

What's better for a 640 credit score: conventional or FHA?

Conventional works at 640 but costs more in rates/PMI. FHA (580 min) has consistent pricing but lifetime MIP. Go conventional if you can hit 680+ soon, total savings exceed $50K over 30 years.
