Conventional Loans
Conforming loans typically refer to loan amounts that conform to government service standards as determined by Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac. These two government agencies, set up in the early 1940's, were established to help people finance new homes. The Conforming loan limit is $417,000 for single family homes. However, not all conforming loans are serviced by these government agencies.
