Currently, rates are more affordable, competition to lend for Jumbo Loans is higher and flexible loan underwriting. This is a GREAT time to shop for Jumbo Loans in La Quinta & the Desert!
Since competition for Jumbo loans is so high, many lenders are relaxing the 20% down payment requirement. Some lenders are considering an 85% LTV in the upcoming months – and some even lower than that.
However, one thing that will never change with Jumbo Loans, are borrowers HAVE to have a great credit score, sufficient reserves and the income to support such a loan.
