When do I need a jumbo loan in Florida?

You need a jumbo loan in Florida when your loan amount is above the conforming limit for the county, which is common in higher priced markets and for luxury and coastal properties. Jumbo loans are not backed by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, so lenders set their own guidelines, usually asking for stronger credit, more reserves, and fuller documentation.
