2023 Conventional Loan Limits Are Now Available

On November 30, 2023, the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) unveiled the latest updates to the Conforming loan limits, which could have a significant impact on your homebuying journey. As of this announcement, prospective homebuyers now have the opportunity to access increased borrowing limits, reaching up to $726,200 in the majority of Massachusetts and Rhode Island counties. Moreover, for those seeking homes in high-cost areas, the loan limit extends to an impressive $1,089,300.

It's important to note that these specific loan limits pertain to conforming loans only, which are supported by entities like Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. The FHFA evaluates and adjusts these limits on an annual basis to stay aligned with market dynamics and financial considerations.

This progression in loan limits follows the upward trajectory established in previous years. In 2021, there was a notable increase to $548,250, followed by another adjustment in 2022, which elevated the limit to $647,200. The culmination of these successive increases signifies a remarkable 32% growth in just a span of two years, demonstrating the dynamic nature of the housing market.
