Super-jumbo in Nevada
Super-jumbo loans above $3M come up regularly in Nevada, especially in the luxury markets listed above.
Many wholesale jumbo desks cap at $3M. Above that the lender pool shifts to specialty and portfolio lenders that hold the loan on balance sheet rather than selling it. We regularly close Nevada super-jumbo loans into the $5M, $10M, and $20M+ range. The right lender depends on the loan size, property type, and the borrower's income and asset picture, not a single rate sheet.

Frequently asked questions

Nevada has FHFA-designated high-cost counties (Douglas, Washoe, Carson City) where the 2026 conforming ceiling of $1,249,125 applies. Loans above that ceiling are jumbo. In Nevada counties that are not high-cost, jumbo begins above the conforming baseline of $832,750.
