More About The Jumbo Loan Program,

A jumbo loan, also known as a non-conforming mortgage, is a type of financing that exceeds the limits set by the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA). It’s classified as a non-conforming mortgage which means that it’s not eligible to be purchased or securitized by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac.

To qualify for a Jumbo loan, you’ll need a good credit score and a lower debt-to-income ratio. You may also need enough cash reserves or assets to cover about 6-12 months’ worth of your mortgage payments.

Jumbo Loan Options

  • Conventional

    Conventional loans may be ideal for those borrowers that have good credit, a low debt-to-income (DTI) ratio and can typically make a down payment of 20% of the loan amount. There are options though for those that need or want to make a lower down payment.

  • VA

    Veteran’s Administration or “VA” loans are available for active, non-active and retired Army, Air Force, Marine, Navy, National Guard, and Coast Guard veterans (or their eligible surviving spouses) who meet the established service requirements.

  • FHA

    The FHA program may be a great option if your homebuying needs and situation preclude you from qualifying for a conventional loan. This specific loan option is designed for those who want to buy a home but may not qualify through conventional loan programs.

  • Fixed-Rate AND Adjustable Rate Mortgages (ARM)

    Fixed-Rate: The loan has a fixed interest rate for the entire life of the loan. ARM: The loan has an interest rate applied to the outstanding balance that varies throughout the life of the loan.

Atlantic Coast Mortgage, LLC (“ACM”) is not affiliated with or acting on behalf of or at the direction of FHA, VA, USDA, or the Federal or State Government.

With an adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM), the interest rate may change after the initial fixed period, and multiple rates may apply over the life of the loan. This could result in a higher rate and monthly payment. At each adjustment, the rate is determined by adding the loan program margin to the applicable market index. Contact your loan officer for details specific to your situation.
