Jumbo Loans For Higher Priced Homes
A “Jumbo” loan or mortgage, is a loan that exceeds the loan limits set for that particular county by the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) for conforming or Conventional loans. In most areas a Conforming limit is sufficient, but some areas or properties appreciate beyond these limits and the Jumbo product is appropriate and available for consumers.
