They largest loans they can buy depends on where the home is located, but range from $417,000 in most places to $625,000 in the nation's most expensive cities. If you need to borrow more than that, then you'll need a jumbo loan.

The principal and interest payment would be $492 a month for every $100,000 borrowed.
