Jumbo Loan

Financing above the applicable conforming loan limit.

Overview

Jumbo loans exceed the conforming loan limit for the property’s county, unit count, and year. FHFA sets those limits. Whether a loan is jumbo depends on the loan amount, not simply whether the purchase price exceeds a particular number.

Lenders set their own jumbo credit, income, equity, and reserve requirements. Compare the full terms and ask whether a high-balance conforming option is available before choosing a jumbo product.

Who it's for

  • Buyers needing financing above the applicable conforming limit
  • Homeowners refinancing a larger mortgage

What's typically reviewed

  • Applicable county and unit-count loan limit

This is a general description, not a guarantee of approval. Specific requirements vary by lender and program. Final qualification is determined during underwriting.
