Maine Conforming Mortgage Rates and Refinance Rates

Conforming home mortgage rates in Maine are the most popular type of mortgages rates you can find advertised for home buyers in Maine. Conforming mortgages, also known as conventional mortgages, are mortgages that meet certain criteria set out by Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA). There is a loan limit set for each county in the United States. Higher mortgage loan limits are set for high housing cost areas. Maine mortgages that 'conform' to the standards set out by the Federal Housing Finance Agency can be purchased by government sponsored entities (GSE) like Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae. This process guarantees Maine banks, mortgage companies and credit unions are able to resell home mortgage loans that they make. This process also makes Maine conforming mortgage rates and refi rates lower than Maine jumbo mortgage rates and jumbo refinance rates because the GSE's can’t purchase jumbo mortgages that are made by Maine home finance companies, credit unions and banks.
