Can I get a conventional loan in Orlando?
Yes. Orlando is a top conventional volume market in Florida — Lake Nona, Sanford, Lake Mary, Kissimmee, and broader Central Florida communities all see active conventional purchase and refinance volume. Standard 2026 conforming limits apply across most Orange, Seminole, Osceola, and Lake County properties.
What this actually means.
Central Florida conventional considerations: HOA dues common across master-planned communities; CDD assessments common in newer neighborhoods (count in DTI); property tax effective rates vary by county; homeowners insurance premiums affected by roof age and wind mitigation. Conventional is the primary path for Orlando second homes, investment property, and condo purchases. Subject to Fannie/Freddie guidelines and Florida-specific factors.
Where this can move.
Florida insurance premiums, property tax millage and Save Our Homes rules, county property-appraiser practice, HOA dues, CDD fees, and condo law can change the answer.
