In general, the government sponsored entities GSEs, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, set the loan limits for conventional loans. The single family loan limit for 2020 is $510,400. These are conventional loans that are within the conforming loan limits.
Bankers Group conventional home loans include:
The new ceiling for the loan limit for one-unit properties in most high-cost areas is $765,600 — or 150 percent of $510,400. This limit is reviewed annually and, if needed, changed to reflect changes in the national average price for single family homes. The current loan limit applies to all conventional mortgages delivered after January 1, 2020.
Loans which are larger than the limits set by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are called jumbo loans. Because jumbo loans are not funded by the above GSEs, they usually carry some additional underwriting requirements and have unique tax implications. This type of loan is not eligible to be securitized, guaranteed or purchased by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac.
Jumbo loans are loan structures designed for luxury real estate or highly competitive local real estate markets. The lender requirements are more stringent, such as a credit score of 700 or more and a very low debt-to-income ratio (DTI). A borrower’s DTI ratio should be no more than 43% but preferably 36% with only 28% going toward a mortgage or rent.
