California VA Loan Limits by County for 2013
The Veterans Administration has announced the VA Loan Limits for California for 2013. The formula for generating the VA Loan Limits was altered by Congress in 2008, and was reinstated beginning August 6, 2012.
The VA Jumbo Loan allows Veterans and Active Duty Military Personnel to purchase homes in higher cost areas of California and Washington at loan amounts more in sync with local housing prices. Qualified Vet’s can purchase up to $987,500 with zero money down.
