What this means
A conforming loan is one that meets Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac's size limit and guidelines, so they can buy it from the lender.
In Los Angeles County, a one-unit loan up to $832,750 is a standard conforming loan, and a loan from $832,751 up to $1,249,125 is a high-balance conforming loan, which Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac still buy, though some program rules differ. A loan above $1,249,125 is a jumbo loan.
Jumbo loans follow each lender's own guidelines and usually need a larger down payment, more cash in reserve and stricter qualifying.
