Home Loan Solutions offers Jumbo loans in California to qualified borrowers. In our opinion, the criteria for qualifying Jumbo has become less stringent than in years past.
After the Financial Crisis of 2007-2008, lenders scaled back on furnishing Jumbo loans; Fast forward to today and they are more popular than ever because housing prices have recovered. In most cases, Home Loan Solutions are able to close Jumbo transactions in 30 days or less.
