Have you been interested in purchasing a home for over the conforming loan limit of $417,000 but afraid of what the interest rate may be? This may be a good time for you to begin looking. It's rare but the mortgage rate on a jumbo loan (a loan for $417,000 or more) is currently lower than the rate on a conforming loan (a loan for less than $417,000). I've posted the current mortgage rates listed on Wells Fargo's website below. You can see the rate on a 30 year fixed conforming loan is 4.375% and for a 30 year fixed jumbo loan the rate is 4%. Definitely a great opportunity to enter into the luxury home market.
