What is the current jumbo loan limit?

Profile picture for DublinRes
I spoke to a Chase mortgage rep to day about refinancing my loan and he said the jumbo loan limit is $417k.

However, bankrate.com shows that for California, the limit is $625,500.

Thanks.

So that would mean the Chase rep is incompetent in at least two jobs now.

The Chase rep is wrong. The limit of $417K is regular confirming loan. Jumbo loan is a loan that is greater than $625,000 (up to 3 million dollars).

A loan between $417,000 and $625,000 is called agency jumbo.  Hope it helps.

The conforming limit in Alameda county is $625,500. The FHA limit is $729,750. The Chase rep you spoke with most like worked at Wendy's last week as the fry guy so don't put too much weight in what was said.

You are looking for the high balance limits which will vary county to county...Shockingly bankrate looks about right to me but I do not lend in CA.
