Remember Jumbo Loans? They're Still Around, But They're Not Easy To Get

Description

Popular in the runup to the housing bust of the Great Recession, a jumbo loan is a mortgage for more than the borrowing limit for regular mortgages. At present, jumbo loans are for mortgages over $510,400 in most parts of the US, and over $765,600 in pricey areas like Alaska, Guam, and the US Virgin Islands. According to Business Insider, jumbo loans can be had--but not easily. Downpayments are typically higher, as are the loan rates. You'll also need to have a low debt-to-income ratio, and excellent credit. Finally, be sure to shop around for a jumbo loan. Rates and requirements vary, so do your research or hire a mortgage broker to do it for you.

  • Conforming And Nonconforming Loans: What's The Difference?

    Would-be home buyers have lots of choices to make when it comes to shopping for a mortgage. Many people go with government-backed mortgages, such as those offered by the FHA, the VA, or the US Department of Agriculture. But according to Business Insider, another option is to get a 'conforming loan.' The loan isn't issued by the government, but still meets government requirements. For a conforming loan, most lenders require at least a 620 credit score and between a 36% and 50% debt-to-income ratio. You'll also need a 10% down payment, or just 3% if your conforming loan is backed by government-sponsored mortgage companies Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae. Nonconforming loans offer more money than conforming loans. Also known as 'jumbo' loans, such loans let you buy a more expensive home. However, getting approved is more difficult. You'll need a higher credit score, lower DTI, and bigger down payment than you would for a conforming mortgage.
