What is a Jumbo Loan?

A Jumbo Loan is also known as a non-conforming loan as it does not conform to the specific rules of either Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, two government agencies that guarantee loans. Specifically, there is a max limit that can vary depending on the location of the property. For 2022, if your loan is above $, you likely would need a Jumbo Loan.

Types of Jumbo Loans

What is a Jumbo Fixed-Rate Mortgage?

With a fixed-rate Jumbo Mortgage, your interest rate stays the same for the life of the loan (or term). Your interest rate will not change.

What is a Jumbo Adjustable-Rate Mortgage?

An Adjustable-Rate Mortgage (ARM) has an introductory period with a lower interest rate than a fixed-rate mortgage. After the introductory period has expired, the rate can move up or down with market changes.
