"With the continuous rising of home prices, the National Association of Realtors® appreciates the FHFA resetting the national and high-cost conforming loan limits," said Rouda Smith. "Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are critical to providing funding to the housing market as we've seen throughout the pandemic and decades before it. The FHFA's actions will continue to ensure liquidity for the home purchase market."
The FHFA's limits define the maximum one-unit single-family mortgage amounts that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac may finance and are also used to define the loan limits for the FHA's program.
