Home buyers should first recognize what is considered a Jumbo loan.  Any loan amount that exceeds the standard Conforming loan limit is considered “Jumbo” in characteristics.  The current 2023 Conforming Loan Limits in NC is $726,200.  Be mindful that this cap is based on the actual loan financed, not the purchase price of the home.

Jumbo loans come in all shapes and sizes today and most banks, lenders and credit unions can offer financing options up to 80% loan to value.  However, a select group of mortgage lenders is offering financing up to 95% –  as little as a 5% down payment for approved buyers.

These programs do require the buyer to have good credit, stable income and manageable debt.  Below we will review the requirements in detail.
