First-Time Homebuyer

Risk Factor

You cannot get a jumbo loan as a first-time homebuyer.

Solution

But this is not the case. Even if you are buying your first home, you can apply for a jumbo loan. And you may be successful depending on your credentials.

Interest Rates

Risk Factor

You will pay a higher interest rate on a jumbo loan.

Solution

DSCR loan interest rates are comparable to conforming loans.

Hard To Qualify For

Risk Factor

Jumbo loans are hard to qualify for.

Solution

Jumbo loans are a bit more difficult to qualify for but not by very much as a credit score of 720 is fairly easy to achieve.

Buying A Modest Home

Risk Factor

You do not need a jumbo loan if you are not buying a mansion.

Solution

It is not uncommon for regular homes to require more financing to buy than you can obtain through the use of a conforming mortgage.

Super High Loan Minimum

Risk Factor

Jumbo loans require a super high loan minimum.

Solution

Jumbo loans don’t start at $1 million dollars. Instead, the minimum amount for a jumbo loan is anything above the conforming loan limit of $647,200.
