If you're buying a $2 million home with 20 percent down, the income limits and reduced insurance can deliver real savings. Above that price point, conventional or jumbo financing typically offers more flexibility.
05
Community lending mortgages carry lower mortgage insurance than conventional loans, but they're income-capped and limited to $2.5 million. Conventional financing has no income limit and no loan-amount ceiling.
In Tiburon's market, conventional financing often wins for purchases above $2.5 million or for buyers whose household income exceeds the area median. Community lending mortgages shine when you qualify on income.
