Understanding Michigan Jumbo Loans
A jumbo loan is any home loan that exceeds the conforming limit of $832,750 as set by Fannie Mae guidelines on conventional mortgages. FHA mortgages have upper mortgage limits set for each county, starting at a minimum of $541,287. Because many banks do not offer jumbo loan mortgage products, Michigan jumbo loans have become one of our specialties.
Our Michigan Jumbo Mortgages are also available as a portfolio product for expanded guidelines outside of conforming limits. Whether you are purchasing a luxury estate, waterfront property, or executive home, our team has the right jumbo loan solution for you.

Michigan Jumbo Loan FAQ
What is a jumbo loan in Michigan?
A jumbo loan in Michigan is any mortgage that exceeds the conforming loan limit of $832,750 set by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Because these loans cannot be purchased by the GSEs, they are funded through portfolio lenders and carry their own underwriting guidelines. Michigan jumbo loans are commonly used to purchase luxury homes, executive estates, and high-value properties throughout the state.
What credit score is needed for a Michigan jumbo mortgage?
Most Michigan jumbo mortgage programs require a minimum credit score of 660. However, borrowers with higher credit scores—typically 720 or above—will generally qualify for more competitive jumbo loan rates and terms. Our loan officers can review your credit profile and help identify a program that fits your situation.
What is the minimum down payment for a jumbo loan in Michigan?
Riverbank offers Michigan jumbo loans with down payments as low as 5% on select programs. Most standard jumbo mortgage programs require between 10% and 20% down. The required down payment depends on the loan amount, property type, and your credit profile.
Are jumbo loan rates higher than conventional mortgage rates?
Jumbo loan rates are often comparable to or slightly higher than conventional conforming loan rates. Because jumbo mortgages are not backed by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, lenders price them based on their own risk models. Our team works to offer competitive Michigan jumbo mortgage rates and can walk you through current pricing for your situation.
Can I refinance with a Michigan jumbo mortgage?
Yes. We offer Michigan jumbo mortgage refinance programs for homeowners looking to lower their rate, reduce their monthly payment, or access equity in their luxury home. Contact our team to explore your refinance options.

“Tomas F. is absolutely amazing, and I’m so thankful he was my loan officer. As a first-time homebuyer, I had a lot to learn, and he walked me through every step of the process, taking the time to educate and guide me along the way. There were definitely some stressful moments, but Tomas was always there as my advocate. He prepared my file so thoroughly before underwriting that the processor and underwriter already had everything they needed, making the underwriting phase smooth and surprisingly quick. If rates drop, I already plan to refinance with Tomas. I trust him completely and am confident that he will handle my file with the same care, diligence, and professionalism. He’s not only effective at what he does, but also kind, patient, and genuinely invested in helping his clients succeed. I would recommend Tomas to any homebuyer, but especially to first-time homebuyers. If you’re looking for someone who is trustworthy, patient, diligent, and highly effective, give Tomas a call.”
