A better, all-digital experience with 30,000+ 5-star reviews.

Quick and Simple. These are qualities we all need when trying to accomplish a new home purchase amidst our daily obligations. Austin and his team at Lower went far beyond my expectations in assisting me with moving into my new home. I am in a customer experience line of work myself and I’m convinced Austin COULD NOT have made this any easier for me. I’ll be back for my next one!

LendingTree Review

I reached out to about half a dozen banks when looking for a Home Mortgage. Lower came back with the best rates and the agent was extremely responsive and helpful.

My score wasn't the best but Adam was pretty confident he could work something out and this was after being told no by other lenders. I didn't get my hopes up but to my surprise I was approved!

My husband and I were extremely happy working with Patrick Martin and thanks to Lending Tree we were connected to Patrick. He made everything easy. He's highly knowledgeable and obviously cares about his customers. We highly recommend Lending Tree and Lower.com Because of them we are finally debt free!!

Frequently Asked Questions

You’ve got conventional loan questions. We’ve got answers.

Do I need to pay private mortgage insurance (PMI) on a conventional loan?

If you make a down payment of less than 20%, PMI is typically required. However, once you reach 20% equity, you can request to have PMI removed, which lowers your monthly payments.

What is a conventional loan, and how does it differ from government-backed loans?

A conventional loan is a mortgage not insured by the government, unlike FHA, VA, or USDA loans. It typically has fewer restrictions and may offer better rates for qualified buyers with good credit.
