How Jumbo Loans Work

Because jumbo loans fall outside the limits for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac programs, they are underwritten directly by the lender. This means underwriting standards can vary significantly from one lender to another — which is exactly why working with an experienced broker like Oso Creek Financial matters.

We have access to multiple jumbo lenders and can shop the best available rates and terms for your loan size and property type. For borrowers with complex income — executives, business owners, or high-net-worth individuals — we can also explore Non-QM jumbo options that allow for alternative income documentation.
