Let Me Address Your Jumbo Loan Concerns
I’ve helped many luxury home buyers navigate jumbo loan concerns. Here’s how I address the most common worries.
"Jumbo loans have much higher rates"
My Solution:
While jumbo rates are typically slightly higher than conforming loans, the difference is often minimal – usually 0.125% to 0.25% for qualified borrowers.
"The qualification process is too strict"
My Solution:
While requirements are higher, I work with lenders who understand high-net-worth borrowers and offer flexible solutions for complex financial situations.
"I need perfect credit and huge down payments"
My Solution:
Many jumbo programs accept 700+ credit scores and down payments as low as 10-20%, depending on the loan amount and borrower profile.
"My income is complex (self-employed, investments)"
My Solution:
Portfolio lenders specialize in complex income situations and can often qualify borrowers based on assets rather than traditional income.
"The process takes too long for luxury purchases"
My Solution:
I prioritize jumbo loans and work with lenders who understand the luxury market timeline. Many close in 30-45 days with proper preparation.
"What if the luxury market changes?"
My Solution:
Texas luxury markets have shown resilience, and proper financing structure helps protect your investment regardless of market fluctuations.

What are the current jumbo loan limits in Texas?
For 2024, the conforming loan limit in most Texas counties is $766,550. Jumbo loans start above this amount, with high-balance conforming loans available up to $1,149,825 in some areas. Super jumbo loans have no upper limit.
What credit score do I need for a jumbo loan?

How much do I need to put down on a jumbo loan?
Down payment requirements vary by loan amount and program. Agency jumbo loans may accept 10-20% down, while portfolio and super jumbo loans typically require 20-40% down payment.
Can I use a jumbo loan for investment properties?
Yes, jumbo loans are available for investment properties, though they typically require higher down payments (25-40%) and have stricter qualification requirements than primary residence loans.
What's the difference between agency and portfolio jumbo loans?
Agency jumbo loans follow Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac guidelines with standardized terms. Portfolio jumbo loans are held by banks and offer more flexibility in underwriting and loan structure.
Do jumbo loans require mortgage insurance?

Can I get an interest-only jumbo loan?

How long does it take to close a jumbo loan?
