Figures are medians of loans actually originated in 2025, as reported under the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act. They describe what borrowers received, not what you would be offered: HMDA contains no credit scores, so these numbers cannot be read as pricing for any individual. Lender fees are reported for 75.1% of loans here — see methodology.

Loan limits here in 2026

Conforming limit
$862,500
FHA limit
$862,500
Median home price
$750,000
That home, 20% down
$600,000

A median-priced home with 20% down leaves $262,500 of room under the conforming limit, so the ceiling rarely binds on an ordinary purchase.

This is a high-cost area: loans above $832,750 are still agency-backed here, as high-balance, where a plain conforming loan would stop. How limits work

Median price is HUD's figure for the 2026 limit calculation, not a live market quote.

Statewide, the median was 6.625% on rate and $5,297 on lender fees across 156,418 loans. See all of Colorado.
