· The new base loan limit in most of the country will be $424,100 and all but 87 counties (or county equivalents) will see a loan limit increase. · This represents a 1.7% increase over the 2016 limit. · The ceiling limit in most of the country will be 150% or $636,150. Detailed information and updated resources, including the Loan Limit Look-Up Table, are available on the Loan Limits page. The updated loan limits will be implemented in Desktop Underwriter® (DU®) the weekend of December 10, 2016.
