Jumbo Loans

If you’re looking to purchase a home in a more expensive housing market, you may need to secure a Jumbo mortgage for a higher price to lock in the deal. 

What is a Jumbo Loan?

A Jumbo loan is a mortgage used to finance properties exceeding the Federal Housing Agency (FHFA) limits of $647,200. These loans are typically riskier for lenders because they aren’t guaranteed by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac and often have a higher level of underwriting scrutiny due to the loan amount.
