> The jumbo loan calculator works out the monthly payment, total interest and payoff date for a mortgage above the conforming loan limit ($832,750 in most of the U.S. in 2026), and tells you whether your loan counts as jumbo.

## Inputs

- Property price
- Down payment (%)
- Loan term (years, months)
- Interest rate (%)
- First payment date
- Conforming loan limit in your county

## Results

- Jumbo loan amount
- Loan type
- Monthly payment
- Total interest paid
- Total interest as a share of the loan
- Date of last payment
- Total debt to repay

## Formula

```
Loan = price − down payment
Monthly payment = pmt(rate ÷ 12, months, loan)
Jumbo if the loan exceeds the conforming limit for your county
```

## Explanation

Jumbo loans can't be bought by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, so lenders often require larger down payments (10–20%), higher credit scores (700+) and more cash reserves. Rates are sometimes close to conforming rates.

### How to use the Jumbo Loan Calculator

- **Property price**
- **Down payment**
- **Loan term**
- **Interest rate**
- **First payment date**
- **Conforming loan limit in your county**

Results update as you type, and every field accepts the units shown in its menu.

### How it works

Enter the property price, down payment, term, interest rate and first payment date.

### Tips

- Get a written loan estimate and compare the APR, not just the interest rate.
- Include property tax, insurance, HOA fees and maintenance in your monthly budget.
- A larger down payment lowers the payment and can remove mortgage insurance.
- Rates change daily – use a current quote for the most accurate result.

### Common mistakes to avoid

- Looking only at the monthly payment instead of the total cost of the loan.
- Forgetting closing costs and fees.
- Assuming home prices always rise.

### What each result means

- **Jumbo loan amount** = [Property price]×(1 - [Down payment]÷100)
- **Monthly payment** = pmt([Interest rate]÷1200, [Loan term], [Jumbo loan amount])
- **Total interest paid** = [Monthly payment]×[Loan term] - [Jumbo loan amount]
- **Total interest as a share of the loan** = [Total interest paid]÷[Jumbo loan amount]×100
- **Date of last payment** = addmonths([First payment date], [Loan term] - 1)
- **Total debt to repay** = [Monthly payment]×[Loan term]

### Example values
