Jumbo Loan - Brandon Hansen - St. George, UT

Jumbo loans require the lender to take on greater risk because of the amount of capital involved, as well as the more limited market potential of buyers. As such, many lenders have stricter qualifications. Some of the most common qualification requirements for jumbo loans include higher down payment amounts, a higher credit score, and a stronger debt-to-income ratio than other types of loans. You’ll also need to provide more documentation if you are self-employed or have varying sources of income. Additionally, your lender will want to look at how much cash you have on hand to ensure you have an available reserve of mortgage payments available.
