Conforming Loan Limits 2027 & 2026: PA and NJ County Guide

Last updated: November 2, 2026. Figures below are the 2026 limits now in effect.

Conforming loan limits set the largest mortgage that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac can buy, so they determine whether your loan counts as a standard conventional loan or a jumbo loan. The 2027 limits have not been announced yet. The U.S. Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) usually announces the next year's limits in late November, and they take effect January 1. Until then, the 2026 limits below apply. We will update this page as soon as the 2027 figures are released.

Based in Newtown, PA (Bucks County), MortgageCS helps buyers and homeowners in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, California, Colorado, Delaware, the District of Columbia, Florida, Maryland, Massachusetts, South Carolina, Virginia and Washington. Below you'll find the national limits, an explanation of conforming, jumbo and FHA limits, and county-by-county tables for PA and NJ.

2026 National Conforming Loan Limits (1–4 Units)

2026 National Conforming Loan Limits (1–4 Units)
Property type Baseline limit (most U.S. counties) High-cost area ceiling
1 unit$832,750$1,249,125
2 units$1,066,250$1,599,375
3 units$1,288,800$1,933,200
4 units$1,601,750$2,402,625
  • The 2026 baseline one-unit limit of $832,750 is up $26,250 from 2025. The increase reflects a 3.26% rise in U.S. home prices measured by FHFA's House Price Index.
  • In high-cost areas the limit can rise above the baseline, but no higher than the ceiling, which is 150% of the baseline ($1,249,125 for a one-unit home in 2026).
  • Alaska, Hawaii, Guam and the U.S. Virgin Islands have separate, higher statutory limits.
  • By law, the baseline limit does not go down from one year to the next.

Conforming vs. Jumbo vs. FHA Loan Limits

Conforming (conventional) loan limits are set each year by FHFA. A conventional loan at or below your county's limit can be bought by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac. Loans between the baseline and your county's high-cost limit are often called "high-balance" conforming loans. Learn about conventional loans.

Jumbo loans are mortgages above the conforming limit for your county and property type. Lenders set their own guidelines for these loans, which often include a larger down payment, higher credit scores and more cash reserves. Rates and terms vary. Learn about jumbo loans.

FHA loan limits are set by HUD and cap the size of FHA-insured loans. They are calculated separately from conforming limits. In 2026 the FHA one-unit floor (lower-cost counties) is $541,287 and the high-cost ceiling is $1,249,125. Many metro areas fall in between. Learn about FHA loans.

2026 FHA limits
2026 FHA limits1 unit2 units3 units4 units
Floor (low-cost areas)$541,287$693,050$837,700$1,041,125
Ceiling (high-cost areas)$1,249,125$1,599,375$1,933,200$2,402,625

Limits are based on the original loan amount and on the county where the property is located.

2026 Pennsylvania Loan Limits by County

In 2026, 66 of Pennsylvania's 67 counties use the $832,750 baseline conforming limit. Pike County is the exception, at $1,209,750. FHA limits are higher than the $541,287 floor in the five Philadelphia-area counties (Bucks, Chester, Delaware, Montgomery and Philadelphia: $630,200). Every other PA county uses the FHA floor. Bold figures are above the baseline (conforming) or the floor (FHA).

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the conforming loan limit in 2027?

FHFA has not yet announced the 2027 conforming loan limits. FHFA typically publishes the next year's limits in late November, and they take effect January 1. Until then, the 2026 limits apply: $832,750 for a one-unit home in most U.S. counties, and up to $1,249,125 in high-cost areas. We will update this page when FHFA releases the 2027 figures.

What is the conforming loan limit in 2026?

For 2026, the baseline conforming loan limit for a one-unit property is $832,750 in most of the U.S. The high-cost-area ceiling is $1,249,125 (150% of the baseline). Limits for 2–4 unit properties are higher: $1,066,250, $1,288,800 and $1,601,750 at the baseline.

What is the conforming loan limit in Pennsylvania?

In 2026, 66 of Pennsylvania's 67 counties, including Bucks, Montgomery, Chester, Delaware and Philadelphia, use the $832,750 baseline limit for a one-unit home. Pike County has a higher limit of $1,209,750.

What is the conforming loan limit in New Jersey?

In 2026, 12 northern and central New Jersey counties in the New York metro area (Bergen, Essex, Hudson, Hunterdon, Middlesex, Monmouth, Morris, Ocean, Passaic, Somerset, Sussex and Union) have a one-unit limit of $1,209,750. The other nine New Jersey counties use the $832,750 baseline.

What happens if my loan amount is over the conforming loan limit?

A loan above your county's conforming limit is called a jumbo (non-conforming) loan. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac can't buy it, so lenders apply their own guidelines. Jumbo loans often call for a larger down payment, higher credit scores and more cash reserves, and their rates and terms can differ from conforming loans. Some borrowers make a larger down payment to bring the loan under the limit. Others use a jumbo loan or another program. A loan officer can help you compare these options.

What is the difference between conforming and FHA loan limits?

Conforming limits, set by FHFA, cap the size of conventional loans that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac can buy. FHA limits, set by HUD, cap the size of FHA-insured loans. They are calculated separately. In 2026 the FHA 'floor' for a one-unit home in lower-cost counties is $541,287, and the FHA ceiling in high-cost areas is $1,249,125. In the Philadelphia metro, for example, the 2026 FHA one-unit limit is $630,200, while the conforming limit is $832,750.

Not Sure Whether Your Loan Is Conforming or Jumbo?

Loan limits are one part of the picture. Your down payment, property type and goals matter too. A MortgageCS loan officer can look at your situation, explain which programs you may qualify for, and compare conforming, jumbo and FHA options side by side.

Loan limits are published by FHFA and HUD and can change. Contact us to confirm the limit for your specific property. MortgageCS is a mortgage broker and does not make credit decisions. Each loan is subject to the lender's underwriting guidelines, property eligibility and borrower qualification, and not all applicants will qualify. Loan terms and availability are set by the lender and may change. NMLS ID # 1464766 (www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org). Equal Housing Opportunity.
