When buying high-value real estate in Colorado, you may need to take out a loan above the Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac conventional conforming limit.
For those borrowers who want more than the standard limits of a mortgage, we have jumbo mortgages.
What is a Jumbo Loan?
A jumbo mortgage is also known as a non-conforming home loan.
This is any mortgage that allows you to borrow an amount in excess of the Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac conforming loan limits.
Like a conforming loan, a jumbo loan is a type of conventional loan. That means that there is no backing from a government agency.
