What is a conventional fixed-rate mortgage?
A conventional fixed-rate mortgage is one of the most common home loans. The monthly principal and interest payment won’t change for the life of the loan, so you get a consistent, predictable monthly payment. Conventional loans like this may also have lower interest rates than jumbo loans, FHA loans or VA loans. The conventional fixed-rate mortgage allows for a flexible down payment (as little as 3%), and the term of the loan typically ranges from 10 to 30 years.
One alternative to a fixed-rate mortgage is the adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) loan, that typically features lower monthly principal and interest payments during the initial rate period. If you plan on moving after a few years, an ARM may be a better option to take advantage of those lower monthly payments.
30-year fixed-rate mortgages
The 30-year conventional fixed-rate mortgage has long been popular because of its fixed interest rate and lower monthly payments compared to other types of fixed-rate loans. But, since the interest payments are spread out over 30 years, you’ll pay more interest over the life of the loan than you would on a shorter-term mortgage.
15- and 20-year fixed-rate mortgages
With a short loan term and lower interest rate, a 15-year fixed-rate mortgage or 20-year fixed-rate mortgage can help you pay off your home faster and build equity more quickly. The 15- and 20-year fixed-rate mortgages are especially popular for refinancing. Keep in mind that a shorter term means a higher monthly payment compared to a 30-year loan.
Need help choosing the right mortgage option?
If you’re shopping for a home mortgage but aren’t sure about your options, it may be time to find a mortgage loan officer. A mortgage loan officer can offer you guidance on choosing the right loan for your specific needs.

Here are the main advantages of a 30-year fixed mortgage. Contact one of our experienced U.S. Bank mortgage loan officers to learn more.
- Predictability: You’ll be able to lock the interest rate on your mortgage for the entire 30-year term so you know what to expect, unlike an adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) that has a variable interest rate.
- Smaller monthly payments: You're able to spread the repayment of your loan over a longer period of time so your monthly payment is smaller.
- Qualify for a larger mortgage: With a 30-year fixed, your monthly payment is a smaller percent of your total monthly income. With a lower ratio, you may qualify for a larger mortgage.
- Flexibility: A smaller monthly payment gives you more flexibility to decide what to do with your money. Plus, you can make a larger payment any time without incurring penalties.
A fixed-rate mortgage with a 30-year term may be a good option for you if you:
- Want to keep your monthly payment low without giving up the stability of a fixed rate
- Want to get approval for a larger loan
- Plan to stay in your home for the long-term
U.S. Bank offers a variety of loan terms and options. Our mortgage loan officers are dedicated to helping you understand and choose the option that’s best for you.
