Jumbo Loans

Buy or refinance a home between $647,200 – $2.5 million more easily than ever.

Who Are Jumbo Loans Best For?

Jumbo Smart loans are great for people who need to borrow up to $2.5 million to buy or refinance a home.

If you need a loan greater than the conventional loan limit in your area ($647,200 in most places, but up to $970,800 in high-cost areas), then our Jumbo Smart loan may be a good option for you.

How Do Jumbo Loans Work?

Jumbo loans, also called nonconforming loans, don’t conform to Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac’s purchasing standards.

Lenders determine jumbo mortgage rates based on your down payment amount, credit score and a number of other external factors.

How Do I Qualify For A Jumbo Loan?

To qualify for a jumbo mortgage, you’ll need:

  • Down payment greater than 10% (exact amount depends on loan purpose and property occupancy)
  • Minimum FICO® Score of 680
  • Debt-to-income ratio (DTI) of no more than 45%
  • 3% – 6% of the purchase price for closing costs

Take the first step toward the right mortgage.
