New FHA Loan Limits for Fulton County, GA - Effective October 1, 2011

By
Mortgage and Lending with Guaranteed Rate NMLS# 2611 NMLS #151088

The Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 raised the maximum conforming loan limit in the contiguous United States, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico to as high as $729,750.  Of course, most counties across the country saw much lower loan limits. 

Conforming loan limits, which had been raised for many high-cost areas throughout the country to a maximum of $729,750, are expected to expire September 30, 2011. After this deadline, high-balance loans will once again be classified as "jumbo" and carry a higher interest rate.

Once the maximum loan limits are lowered, the new FHA loan limit for Fulton County, GA (as part of the Atlanta-Sandy Springs-Marietta, GA MSA) will be as follows:

County

Before September 2011

After September 2011

Fulton

$346,250

$320,850

For buyers looking in the higher prices, this reduction will limit their purchasing ability when using FHA financing.

We actually get mortgages closed FAST!

This is not the time to lower loan limits in my opinion.

Have a great night.

Adam.....When the limits were increased in 2008, it was only a temporary measure.  Since then, both mortgage insurance and jumbo financing have both began to make a comeback.
