Frequently Asked Questions

The questions we get asked most about the Jumbo Loan With Less Money Down.

Yes. At least one program allows more financing than the standard jumbo tier for borrowers with strong credit and reserves.

Yes, and this is the condition to plan around. Above the standard financing tier at least one program is limited to a fixed rate, so an adjustable rate is not an option there.

A 720 score at that tier. This route is built for strong credit rather than for thin files.

Twelve months at that tier, against six months at the standard tier. The stronger financing is paid for in reserves.

That tier runs to $1 million on at least one program. Above it you move back into the standard tiers.

Single-family homes, PUDs, warrantable condominiums and two-unit attached properties. Co-ops, condotels, non-warrantable condominiums and manufactured homes are not.

The strongest financing tiers are written around a primary residence. Second home and investment occupancy follow their own, tighter tiers.

Lower than the standard jumbo tier, which is the point of the program. The down payment required for jumbo mortgage financing depends on the tier you land in: on at least one program the lower down payment tier is available on loan amounts up to $1 million, on a fixed rate only, with a 720 credit score and twelve months of reserves left after closing. Above $1 million you move back into the standard jumbo tiers, where the down payment steps up and the reserve requirement drops to six months. Down payment and cash-out limits also vary by occupancy and credit, so a loan officer will quote your exact figure once the property and price are known.

Yes, loan size and down payment are linked. The jumbo mortgage minimum down payment sits at the smallest balances with the strongest credit, and it rises as the loan amount rises, because each higher tier trades a larger loan for more equity, more reserves or a higher score. The lowest down payment tier is written around a primary residence; a second home or an investment property follows its own, tighter tiers. Single-family homes, PUDs, warrantable condominiums and two-unit attached properties are eligible on this program. Co-ops, condotels, non-warrantable condominiums and manufactured homes are not.
