Welcome to TopOne Mortgage—your Rockville based correspondent lender with in-house warehouse funding for lightning fast closings. When your dream home costs more than the FHFA high-cost limit of $1,149,825, a jumbo loan lets you finance up to $3 million (and beyond) with flexible down-payment options and competitive rates.

What Makes a Loan “Jumbo”?

A jumbo loan exceeds your county’s high-cost limit — $1,149,825 for one-unit homes in Fairfax, Arlington, Montgomery, and Washington, D.C. — so it’s too large for Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac to buy.

  • Loan amount: Anything above $1,149,825 (1-unit 2025 limit in Fairfax, Arlington, Montgomery, and D.C.).
  • Portfolio underwriting: Jumbo loans don’t follow Fannie/Freddie rules; lenders set their own guidelines.
  • Credit score: 700 + ideal, some programs down to 680 with strong compensating factors.
  • Debt-to-income (DTI): ≤ 43 % (up to 45 % on select programs).
  • Down payment: 10 %–20 % for primary homes; 25 % + on second homes or investment properties.
  • Cash reserves: 6–12 months PITI typically required.
  • Appraisals: One appraisal up to $2 million; two appraisals often required above that mark.
