What Is a Jumbo Loan?

A jumbo loan is a type of mortgage used to finance homes that exceed the conforming loan limits set by the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA). These limits vary by county and are updated annually. If the loan amount you need is higher than the maximum conforming limit for your area, a jumbo loan may be the right solution.

Because jumbo loans fall outside the guidelines of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, they are considered non-conforming loans. This means they often come with different qualification requirements, but they allow borrowers to purchase high-value homes without needing multiple smaller mortgages.

When Do You Need a Jumbo Loan?

You may need a jumbo loan if:

  • The price of the home you’re buying exceeds local conforming loan limits.
  • You’re purchasing a luxury property, second home, or investment property in a high-cost area.
  • You want a single mortgage instead of splitting the financing into two separate loans.

Key Features of Jumbo Loans

Jumbo loans are designed for well-qualified borrowers seeking higher loan amounts. Here are some key characteristics:

  • Loan amounts exceed conforming limits—often used for properties in high-value markets.
  • Available for primary homes, second homes, and investment properties.
  • Fixed and adjustable-rate options available depending on lender programs.
    Flexible loan terms, typically ranging from 15 to 30 years.

Because they are considered riskier from a lender’s perspective, jumbo loans may carry different approval guidelines.

What Are the Qualification Requirements?

Qualifying for a jumbo loan is generally more demanding than for a standard conforming loan. You may need:

  • Strong credit score, often 700 or higher depending on the lender.
    Lower debt-to-income (DTI) ratio to ensure repayment ability.
  • Substantial assets or reserves, such as savings or investments.
  • Full income documentation and employment verification.
    Appraisal on the home to support the loan amount.

Keep in mind that each lender sets its own criteria for jumbo loan approval.

Benefits of a Jumbo Loan

For the right borrower, a jumbo loan offers advantages such as:

  • Higher purchasing power—ideal for buying luxury or high-cost properties.
  • Simplified financing—eliminates the need for multiple loans on one property.
  • Custom loan solutions—more flexibility in structuring terms and repayment.

Things to Consider

Because jumbo loans are non-conforming, there are a few important considerations:

  • Stricter qualifications than standard loans.
  • Potentially higher interest rates, though competitive options are available depending on credit profile.
  • More documentation may be required during the underwriting process.

It’s a good idea to work with an experienced mortgage professional who can guide you through the specific requirements and ensure you’re choosing the best loan option for your goals.
