What is a Jumbo Loan?
Jumbo loans are home loans that exceed conforming loan limits.
Conforming loan limits are established by the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA). The FHFA establishes the legal loan limits for home loans which can be purchased by Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac; two government-sponsored companies providing liquidity, stability and affordability to the mortgage market.
What is the conforming loan limit in Oregon?
$484,350.00 is the single-family conforming loan limit for homes in Oregon.
$620,200.00 is the two-unit loan limit, $749,650.00 is the three-unit loan limit and $931,600.00 is the four-unit loan limit for Oregon mortgage loans that can be sold to Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac.

What if I want to borrow more?
Jumbo loans allow you to borrow more than conforming loan limits allow.
Jumbo loans are portfolio mortgage loans; underwritten to a specific bank, lending institution, or investor’s guidelines. Portfolio loans, address the needs of borrowers, properties, and loan sizes that do not conform to Agency or Government loan standards.
Who has the best jumbo rates?
Jumbo loan rates, terms and fees vary dramatically between lenders. It's a great idea to get several loan quotes before choosing a lender.

"My experience with David and his team at Lumen Mortgage could not have been better or gone smoother. Not only were the fees much lower than the broker I had originally planned to work with but the level of service was phenomenal. My real estate agent and the title company we worked with both praised Lumen for the thorough and efficient work they did. This was my first purchase in the US and David took the time to explain every step in the process and review every document with me personally. I could not have been happier and it is my pleasure to recommend them to anyone looking for a mortgage"
Charlotte W - Portland, Or
"Our loan officer was incredible. They stayed in constant contact with us during the entirety of the process. They dealt with every underwriting contingency in a timely manner and, despite all, closed on our original close date. Couldn't have done it without them. Literally. I hope to never buy a house again, but when I do, I'll be getting financing through Lumen. Awesome service!

Oregon Jumbo Loan Glossary
Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac buy mortgages from lenders and either hold these mortgages in their portfolios or package the loans into mortgage-backed securities (MBS) that may be sold. Lenders use the cash raised by selling mortgages to the Enterprises to engage in further lending. The Enterprises’ purchases help ensure that individuals and families that buy homes and investors that purchase apartment buildings and other multifamily dwellings have a continuous, stable supply of mortgage money.
By packaging mortgages into MBS and guaranteeing the timely payment of principal and interest on the underlying mortgages, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac attract to the secondary mortgage market investors who might not otherwise invest in mortgages, thereby expanding the pool of funds available for housing. That makes the secondary mortgage market more liquid and helps lower the interest rates paid by homeowners and other mortgage borrowers.
Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac also can help stabilize mortgage markets and protect housing during extraordinary periods when stress or turmoil in the broader financial system threaten the economy. The Enterprises’ support for mortgage lending that finances affordable housing reduces the cost of such borrowing.
Fannie Mae was first chartered by the U.S. government in 1938 to help ensure a reliable and affordable supply of mortgage funds throughout the country. Today it is a shareholder-owned company that operates under a congressional charter.
