Alabama Mortgage Rates

Editorial note: Some state-specific details are temporarily unavailable. The current rate table above is unaffected.

Common Alabama Loan Types:

  • Alabama conventional mortgages: Conventional mortgages are made by private lenders without FHA insurance or a VA guaranty. Loan availability, qualifications, down payment, mortgage insurance, rates, and fees depend on the lender, borrower, property, and program.
  • Alabama FHA loans: FHA-insured mortgages are made by FHA-approved lenders and are not limited to first-time buyers. Eligibility and down payment depend on the borrower and property; loan limits and mortgage insurance vary by location and loan details.
  • Alabama VA loans: VA-backed mortgages are made by private lenders for eligible borrowers who meet VA and lender requirements. Some qualified purchase borrowers may use no down payment, while entitlement, appraisal, occupancy, funding-fee rules and exemptions, and lender requirements still apply.

Program information: FHA (HUD) and VA.gov.
