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 62.8% of loans here — see methodology.

Loan limits here in 2026

Conforming limit
$832,750
FHA limit
$541,287
Median home price
$250,000
That home, 20% down
$200,000

A median-priced home with 20% down leaves $632,750 of room under the conforming limit, so the ceiling rarely binds on an ordinary purchase.

Borrow more than $832,750 and the loan becomes jumbo — outside agency rules, priced by each lender on its own terms. How limits work

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

Statewide, the median was 6.750% on rate and $5,569 on lender fees across 232,591 loans. See all of Illinois.
