ƒHow this is calculated

  • Blended rate = (first loan × first rate + second loan × second rate) ÷ total loan.
  • Second liens are often variable-rate or shorter-term, and jumbo loans often require more reserves and higher credit scores. Compare total cost as well as the payment.
  • FHFA sets conforming limits each year; 2027 limits are expected in late November 2026.
