Stability for Your Budget

A fixed-rate mortgage has an interest rate that remains the same for the life of the loan. This is a great choice for buyers who want a stable monthly mortgage payment for the long term. Our Conventional Fixed-rate Mortgage rates are among the lowest interest rates we offer.

Loan Features

  • Minimum 5% Down Payment

    Lots of loans require up to a 20% down payment. These loans only require 5% down so you can buy your home sooner.

  • No-Refi Rate Drop on Jumbo Loans

    With our easy no-refi rate drop, you have rate-drop assurance on our Jumbo Fixed-Rate loans. Buy your home now, and if rates drop later, you could lower your rate without refinancing for a one-time $250 fee.1 2

  • No Private Mortgage Insurance Required

    Most lenders require the borrower to purchase PMI unless they can make a down payment of 20%.

  • Refinance Options Available

    If you already have a mortgage and want to refinance for a different interest rate or shorter term, this loan may also be a good fit.

Discount Points: The interest rate above shows the option of purchasing discount points to lower a loan’s interest rate and monthly payment. One point amounts to 1% of the loan amount and is paid at closing. Points don’t always have to be round numbers. Purchasing 1.5 points would cost $4,500 on a $300,000 mortgage.

Rates displayed are the "as low as" rates for purchase loans and refinances.

Jumbo Loans: Loans over a certain amount are called jumbo loans. In most states, mortgage loans greater than $726,200 are jumbo loans. In AK and HI, any loan over $1,089,300 is considered a jumbo loan.

Conventional Fixed-rate FAQs

A mortgage rate is the interest rate you're charged on the loan you borrowed to fund the purchase of a home. Mortgage rates can be fixed or variable. Navy Federal uses many factors to determine your mortgage interest rate, including, but not limited to, the following:

  • Credit score
  • Debt-to-income ratio
  • Type of loan you're applying for
  • Loan amount
  • Loan term
  • Property location
  • Property type
  • U.S. economic market conditions

Ultimately, your mortgage rate depends on your own financial wellness and the broader conditions of the economy. 

There’s a common misconception that mortgage rates rise and fall with the Federal Reserve funds rate. Actually, the most common mortgage—the 30-year, fixed-rate mortgage—is more closely tied to the 10-year Treasury yield. That's the yield that reflects how investors feel about the economy. The federal funds rate is just a minor component of that yield. 

In the case of mortgage loans, an interest rate is the cost you pay annually to borrow money, expressed as a percent rate. It does not reflect fees or any other charges you may have to pay for the loan. In contrast, APR (annual percentage rate) includes the interest rate plus all lender charges paid upfront for the loan, such as discount points and mortgage lender fees.
