What is a Conventional Loan?
Conventional loans are mortgage loans that are not insured or guaranteed by the government. They’re ideal for borrowers with strong credit, stable income, and the ability to make a down payment.
Exceeds Conforming Limits
Jumbo loans exceed the conforming loan limits set by the FHFA for conventional loans backed by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
- In most counties: Over $726,200 (2024)
- High-cost areas: Over $1,089,300 (2024)
- Limits adjust annually based on home prices
Non-Conforming Loans
Jumbo loans are considered non-conforming because they don't conform to the guidelines set by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
- Not eligible for government backing
- Held by private lenders or investors
- Custom underwriting standards
Luxury Property Financing
Jumbo loans are specifically designed for high-end properties and luxury homes that require larger loan amounts.
- High-value primary residences
- Vacation homes in premium locations
- High-end investment properties
Jumbo Loan Limits
Jumbo loan limits vary by location and are based on the conforming loan limits set by the FHFA. In 2023, the standard conforming loan limit is $726,200 for most counties in the United States. In high-cost areas, such as New York City, San Francisco, and Los Angeles, the limit can be as high as $1,089,300. Any loan amount above these limits is considered a jumbo loan. These limits are adjusted annually based on changes in average home prices.
Jumbo Loan Requirements
Jumbo loans typically have stricter qualification requirements than conventional loans due to their larger loan amounts and increased risk.
Financial Requirements
Credit Score
Typically 700 or higher, with better rates for scores above 760
Down Payment
Minimum 10-20%, with some lenders requiring 20-30% for larger loans
Debt-to-Income Ratio (DTI)
Generally below 43%, with some lenders requiring 36-38%
Cash Reserves
Typically 6-12 months of mortgage payments in liquid assets
Income Verification
Strong, stable income with detailed documentation
Documentation Needed
Comprehensive Income Documentation
2+ years of tax returns, W-2s, 1099s, and recent pay stubs
Asset Verification
Bank statements, investment accounts, retirement accounts, and other assets
Detailed Credit History
Comprehensive credit report with strong payment history
Property Appraisal
Detailed appraisal, often with multiple appraisers for high-value properties
Business Documentation
For self-employed borrowers: business tax returns, profit & loss statements, and business bank statements
Stricter Underwriting Process
Jumbo loans undergo a more rigorous underwriting process compared to conventional loans. Lenders carefully review all aspects of your financial profile, including credit history, income stability, employment history, and assets. The property being financed will also receive a thorough evaluation, often requiring multiple appraisals for high-value homes. This comprehensive review helps lenders mitigate the increased risk associated with larger loan amounts.

Benefits of Jumbo Loans
Jumbo loans offer several advantages for borrowers looking to finance high-value properties.
- Higher Loan Amounts
Jumbo loans allow you to finance luxury and high-value properties that exceed conforming loan limits, giving you access to premium real estate markets.
- Competitive Rates
Despite their larger size, jumbo loans can offer competitive interest rates, especially for borrowers with excellent credit and strong financial profiles.
- Flexible Terms
Jumbo loans offer various term options, including fixed-rate and adjustable-rate mortgages, allowing you to choose the structure that best fits your financial strategy.
- Single Loan Solution
Instead of combining multiple loans, a jumbo loan provides a single financing solution for your high-value property, simplifying your mortgage management.
- Tax Benefits
Jumbo loans may offer tax advantages, since mortgage interest on loans up to $750,000 (or $1 million if originated before Dec 15, 2017) may still be tax-deductible under current IRS rules.
- Cancellable PMI
Jumbo loan programs often offer more personalized and flexible underwriting, allowing lenders to consider unique financial situations and property characteristics.
