Jumbo Loan FAQs
What is a jumbo loan, and how is it different from a conventional loan?
A jumbo loan is a mortgage that exceeds the conforming loan limits set by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. For 2025, the limit is $806,500 in most areas and $1,209,750 in high-cost areas. Since jumbo loans are not backed by government-sponsored entities, they have stricter credit, income, and down payment requirements compared to conventional loans.
What credit score do I need to qualify for a jumbo loan?
At Land Home Financial, we typically require a minimum credit score of 700-720 for jumbo loan approval. However, borrowers with strong financial profiles may qualify with slightly lower scores, depending on other compensating factors such as down payment and cash reserves.
Do jumbo loans require private mortgage insurance (PMI)?
No! One of the advantages of our jumbo loan program is that PMI is not required, even if you put down less than 20%. Instead, we structure loans to align with borrower financial strengths, ensuring competitive terms without additional insurance costs.
