General Jumbo Loan Overview

What Makes Our Jumbo Loan Different?

  • The max loan amount is now $2.5 million (previously $2 million).
  • Borrowers can now finance investment properties (previously only primary residences and second homes).
  • We only need one appraisal, in most cases.
  • Your debt-to-income ratio (DTI) can be as much as 45% (previously 43%).
  • Your loan-to-value ratio (LTV) can be up to 89.99% (previously 80%).
  • Minimum FICO® Score is now 680 (previously 700).
  • Cash-out refinance is now allowed on second homes and investment properties (previously only primary residences).
  • Self-employed people don’t need to provide as many documents.

How Do Jumbo Smart Loans Work?

  • Jumbo Smart loans are great for people who need to borrow up to $2.5 million to buy or refinance a home. These larger loans are often known as jumbo loans.
  • Jumbo loans are also called nonconforming loans because they’re over conventional loan Nonconforming loans also don’t meet Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac’s purchasing standards.
  • In most of the country, the 2022 conventional loan limit is $647,200. The limit is $970,800 in many high-cost areas, but loan limits vary. It’s important to look up conforming loan limits in your area.
  • If you need a loan greater than the conventional loan limit in your area, then our Jumbo Smart loan may be a good option for you.

What Do You Need To Qualify For A Jumbo Smart Loan?

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

  • A down payment greater than 10%.
  • A minimum FICO® Score of 680.
  • A debt-to-income ratio (DTI) of no more than 45%. Estimate your DTI by adding your monthly debt payments (such as credit card and car payments) and dividing the total by your monthly income before taxes.
  • Money to cover closing costs, which are about 2% – 6% of the purchase price.
  • A maximum loan-to-value ratio (LTV) of 89.99% (previously capped at 80%).
