Is there a difference betweeb a jumbo and high-balance mortgage

I see articles about both " high balance loans" and jumbo online but I'm not seeing the overlap. Either way idealy i'd like to take out a larger mortgage but for less than 20% down and my credit is 702 only. So any fitting options will do by candida887623224 from Scottsdale, Arizona.

Yes there is a difference.High Balance Loans are for areas of the country where the costs of homes is much higher. These areas and the values are determined by HUD on a county by county area most of the time. Some of these areas are located in California, Hawaii, New York. We have no such areas in Arizona.Jumbo loans are for loans over $417,000.As a mortgage banker in Arizona, I would be pleased to answer your questions as well as assist you will obtaining the best loan for you, your needs, qualifications, and financial goals.Call me Korene L.

Yes.."High balance Loans" are conventional loans for properties that are in "High Cost Area's" of America. New York, Chicago, LA, Most of Hawaii, etc.. Homes in these cities are much more expensive than other area's, so the typical "$417K" maximum loan limit for conventional financing is extended for those higher cost of living areas.. Jumbo financing is for all those loans that exceed the $417K, or the HBL's for the area. In Scottsdale, it's not considered a high cost area, so your stuck with the $417K max loan amount for conventional. There are some pretty aggressive Jumbo loan products out there right now, so you might want to give me a call.. I think I can help you find the right loan... I'm a Broker here in Scottsdale AZ and I only lend in Arizona. If you or someone you know is looking for financing options, feel free to contact me or pass along my information. William J.
