Amador County uses the standard Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac baseline limit. Check the current FHFA limit before you start shopping.

Question 2

Can I use a conforming loan on an older Amador City home?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but the home must meet Fannie or Freddie condition standards. Significant deferred maintenance may require repairs before closing.

Accepted Answer

No. Some programs go as low as 3% down. You'll pay PMI until you hit 20% equity.
