* The Blue Water Navy Vietnam Veterans Act of 2019 repealed VA loan limits starting January 1, 2020. Lenders may impose their own limits, however. Ask your lender about their maximum VA loan amount before applying.This page includes the 2025 conforming loan limits for all Washington State counties, with some additional commentary about how and why these caps are set. Home loans that exceed the maximum amounts shown below are considered “jumbo” mortgages.
At a glance: The current single-family conforming loan limit for most counties in Washington State is $806,500 (an increase over the 2024 cap of $766,550). In the more expensive Seattle-area counties of King, Pierce, and Snohomish, the single-family loan limit has been increased to $1,037,300 for 2025.
The table below shows conforming loan limits for all Washington counties, and for all four property types. Note: a “1-unit” property is a single-family home with one resident. The “2-unit” column applies to duplex-style properties with two separate residents, and so on. If you’re buying a single-family home or condo in Washington State, refer to the “1-unit” conforming loan limit column.

Washington State conforming loan limits are determined by the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA). The Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 (HERA) requires the FHFA to monitor and track average home prices in the U.S., and to annually adjust the baseline jumbo loan limit as needed to reflect changes in national home values.
In other words, if prices go up considerably in a certain county, FHFA may increase the corresponding loan limits to keep pace with rising home values. Conforming limits are usually set at 115% of the median home price for each area, though they can exceed this level in some high-cost areas.
The 2025 conforming limit for most counties in Washington State is $806,500. The three exceptions to this baseline amount are King, Pierce, Snohomish counties. (See the table above for county-by-county details.)
In recent years, FHFA has used the median home values estimated by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA), which is part of HUD. So there are several federal housing agencies involved in determining loan limits.
Check out our mortgage loan limit tool for conventional, FHA, and VA loans.
We predicted that federal housing officials would increase the Seattle jumbo loan threshold in response to significant home-price gains that occurred during the year. That prediction turned out to be accurate. In fact, the FHFA raised limits across most of the country.
According to a recent news release from FHFA:
“The Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) today announced the conforming loan limit values (CLLs) for mortgages acquired by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac (the Enterprises) in 2025. In most of the United States, the 2025 CLL value for one-unit properties will be $806,500, an increase of $39,950 (or 5.2 percent) from 2024.”
So, the vast majority of counties across the U.S. will see higher caps in 2025, compared to the year before. Home prices nationally rose by an average of around 2.6% during 2024. In Washington, the median house value increased by 3.2%.
