Jumbo
Jumbo home financing allows buyers to buy homes outside of the standard conventional loan limits with similar mortgage options.
What is a Jumbo Loan?
Jumbo loans provide an opportunity for buyers to finance luxury homes or properties in hot real estate markets. A jumbo loan is a type of mortgage that exceeds limits set by the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA). You can look up current limits on the FHFA’s website. Loan limits vary by county and state, and can change annually, so it’s important to understand the limits for your area.
