Apply for a Jumbo Loans →A jumbo loan is any mortgage that exceeds the conforming loan limit set by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac — currently $766,550 in most Florida counties (and up to $929,200 in high-cost areas like Miami-Dade). Because these loans cannot be sold to government-sponsored agencies, lenders set their own underwriting standards, which is why working with a broker who shops multiple jumbo lenders matters so much.

Common Questions
What is the jumbo loan limit in Florida?
In most Florida counties, loans above $766,550 are jumbo (2024). In high-cost counties like Miami-Dade, Monroe, and Collier, the conforming limit goes up to $929,200 before becoming jumbo.
Are jumbo loan rates higher than conventional?
Historically yes, but in recent years jumbo rates have often been LOWER than conforming rates because lenders compete heavily for jumbo borrowers (who typically have stronger profiles). We shop multiple jumbo lenders for you.
Can I get a jumbo loan if I am self-employed?
Absolutely. We work with multiple jumbo lenders that accept bank statements (12 or 24 months) instead of tax returns — perfect for business owners whose write-offs make their returns look smaller than their true income.
Do I need 20% down for a jumbo loan?
Not necessarily. Some jumbo programs allow as little as 5% down (with PMI). With 10%–15% down, you can avoid jumbo loan PMI altogether on many programs. Down payment requirements scale up for larger loan amounts.
