How to get a Jumbo loan in South Carolina
Jumbo loans have loan amounts that are above the Conforming loan limit that is set by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac for a single-family home in most areas. One of the exceptions is designated areas that are considered High-cost markets. Most high cost areas are in larger cities with dense populations and the demand for housing is higher.
