Conforming Loan Limits

We've got the entire list of conforming Loan Limits in the United States. You can drill down into any state to see its county level conforming loan limits as well.

What exactly is a "conforming loan limit" anyway?

In short, a conforming loan limit is the biggest conventional mortgage possible. A conventional mortgage is a type of mortgage that can be bought by Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae, and then packaged into securities that are sold to a bunch of investors. This "packaging" reduces the risk to lenders because once your mortgage is securitized and sold to investors, the risk is split up among all those investors. The lender no longer has to worry about you defaulting on your mortgage because they don't own it any more. The lender has "sold" your mortgage to Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae and have gotten their money back.

Once Freddie or Fannie have bought the mortgage from the lender, they "bundle" it together with lots of other mortgages creating a security instrument (like a stock ticker). They sell this security to investors and recoup the money they originally spent to buy the mortgage from the lender. Conforming loan limits are basically Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae saying "Dear Lender, we'll buy that mortgage you just approved for Mrs Jane Doe, but only if it's below a certain limit."
