This is a kind of non-conforming loan. Here the loan amount exceeds that of the limit set for purchases and security reasons by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. This limit has now reached $1 billion .the interest rate is a little higher than the others. Both Fixed and Adjusted interest rates are possible with this type.

It is used by:

• Those who want to buy expensive properties and can handle huge monthly payments.
• Those buyers who are keen on investment. This is to leverage their asset worth.

There are other sub-categories to the jumbo loan, especially the Super Jumbo loan. The amount of risk involved is huge for the lenders as well as the buyers. Because:

• With abrupt fluctuations in the economy, the property value may depreciate.
• With huge investments the tax value also increases correspondingly.
• Failing to make payments, a lien may be placed against your home.
• The huge payments are always a headache.
