What Is A Jumbo Loan

Money : Borrowing

Most people when they want to borrow a large sum of money for their house will take out a mortgage.

However sometimes something called a jumbo loan comes into play.

A jumbo loan is actually very descriptive, because it is exactly that - a (very) large loan!

Typically this will be a loan in the US over the amount of $252,700 at last check.

These clearly won't be suitable for most people in most circumstances, however if you heard it mentioned, then that is what a jumbo loan refers to.
