jumbo loan: Some Quick Guidelines for Agents about Super Jumbo Loan Amounts In California - 11/23/09 07:44 PM
Contrary to popular belief, super jumbo loans are available in California. I want to let you know what I have found to be the maximum loan amounts from the lenders that my company is approved with. As you may have guessed, the requirements for super jumbo loans have gotten stricter.
In San Mateo County, where I live, the "agency (Freddie, Fannie)" jumbo limit is $729,750. The term "super jumbo loan" is relative - for the purpose of this article I will consider it to be any loan amount more than $1 million. The following guidelines are for the purchase of primary … (4 comments)

jumbo loan: Why A Jumbo Loan In California Is So Hard To Get - 09/10/09 06:11 PM
As a loan officer in California I specialize in the jumbo loan market. I have been encouraged recently by the re-appearance of some lenders (Suntrust, Citimortgage) into the jumbo loan space. Despite the increased competition, it is still very difficult to obtain a jumbo loan because of the strict underwriting guidelines.
I have done a survey of my jumbo loan sources with the purpose of finding some minimum standards required in each area of underwriting. Here is what I have found:

jumbo loan: Jumbo Loan in San Francisco - 07/30/09 02:54 PM
Getting a jumbo loan for homes in San Francisco has been difficult this year. Many of the lenders have either gone out of business, or have dropped their programs.

jumbo loan: Jumbo Mortgage Loan Rates and Terms Update - 07/28/09 03:45 PM
Contrary to popular belief, there are good rates available for  jumbo mortgage loans. Here in California, our most popular mortgage allows you to borrow 70% of the value of the  property up to a loan amount of $1,500,000. An 80% combined loan amount is allowed.

Citimortgage is strong with their 30 year fixed rate and 5/1 LIBOR ARM. They allow the highest jumbo loan amount up to $1,500,000. They also allow interest-only on their ARM.
US Bank has very good … (0 comments)
