Jumbo loan benefits & guidelines

If you’ve outgrown your starter home or are upgrading to a dream property, a jumbo loan helps you finance homes priced above standard limits. A jumbo mortgage is a larger loan for properties exceeding Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac conforming thresholds, making it non-conforming. Limits vary by region—higher in expensive areas to match local market conditions.

Savings, if any, vary based on the consumer’s credit profile, interest rate availability, and other factors. Daily Mortgage rates are the national average by Optimal Blue’s Mortgage Marketed Index.
