San Diego Jumbo Loans

Need a bigger loan for your dream home or property? Then a jumbo loan might be right for you.

Jumbo Loan FAQs

  • Why are rates higher with jumbo mortgages?

    The rates are typically higher with jumbo mortgages because of the higher risk associated with financing a larger property. If the loan defaults, it may be harder to sell the property and to recover any losses.

  • How do I find my county’s conforming loan limit?

    Here is a good starting point for current county conforming loan limits. Keep in mind that these change every year.

  • Do I really have to put down a 20% deposit?

    A larger deposit generally means a lower risk of default (as the borrower has put down more of their own cash). This is to mitigate the higher risk involved for the lender. To qualify for a jumbo loan with a smaller down payment, you will need a really good credit history, strong income, or reserve assets that can cover 6-12 months of payment.

Rated one of the top 100 mortgage brokers in the nation

I shopped around a bit for a broker, and was referred to John by a coworker. He was by far the most personable, professional, and proactive broker that I interacted with. He promised me that he was doing everything he could to protect my family's money and get us into a house that we love, and he did. The bottom line is he got us our desired results, he offered great advice, and he earned my trust and confidence. I would recommend his services to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and passionate mortgage broker.

John is great at what he does, especially for first time homebuyers. He is willing to go the extra mile for his clients and will explain exactly what he's doing along the way. I'm so glad we were able to work with him and I highly recommend him.

Beyond grateful to have been referred to John G. right after getting our offer accepted on a home. We would not have been able to do it without him. He secured us a great rate, which was a game changer in our decision to purchase. It was our first home purchase, and he helped us navigate every single thing, and was extremely responsive and available to chat when we needed him. The entire escrow process was smoother and quicker than we could have ever hoped for. He was a pleasure to work with, and we hope to continue to work with him in the future.
