Loan Limits Rise

Both the Senate and House have passed the economic stimulus plan, which includes an increase in Conforming Mortgage Loan Limits to $625,000 through December 31, 2008. President Bush should sign this bill by early to mid next week and many hope that conforming loan limits will increase immediately. Others assume it will not go into effect until July. Either way, the limits will increase and they do we will let you know.

Unfortunately, FHA Mortgage Reform was eliminated from the bill and there are no permanent FHA loan limit changes. However, since FHA loan limits are a function (or percentage) of conforming loan limits we should see a temporary increase in FHA loan limits.

Charlotte Jumbo Mortgage Loan Limits Increase!

Charlotte FHA Mortgage Loan Limits Increase!

Update: Well, it seems that politicians in their infinite wisdom have made some changes to the final draft of this bill. Based on some of what we are seeing right now, Charlotte may not benefit from this jumbo loan limit increase after all. Some areas in the country will see limits increase to over $700,000! But since Charlotte is still such a strong market, we may not see the increases once thought. Once the President signs this into law, and the legal eyes of all the lenders finally get done, we will see how this impacts Charlotte jumbo loans. However, jumbo rates are near an all time low, so it is still a fantastic time to refinance your jumbo loan, or purchase that dream home you have been wanting!
