The Federal Housing Administration (FHA) has just increased the amount of money that can be borrowed through its mortgage programs by more than $524,000 in most areas. In high-cost locations, the increase is even greater. New limits will take effect January 1, 2025.

This news could make a big difference for homebuyers!

The increases will allow more borrowers to take advantage of FHA’s benefits:

  • Low down payment options

  • Lower total cash-to-close requirements with gift or seller contributions

  • More lenient and streamlined refinancing

  • Ability to combine purchase and rehab financing

Here are the specifics:

  • In most areas, the FHA loan limit will be $524,225, a 5.2% increase over 2024's limit.

  • In most high-cost areas, the limit moves to $1,209,750.

  • In some lower-cost areas or those with higher construction costs, limits will vary.
