Florida mortgage FAQs
Do you lend across all of Florida?+
Yes — we're licensed statewide. We close loans daily from the Panhandle (Destin, 30A) through Naples, Sarasota, Tampa, Orlando, the Treasure Coast, Miami-Dade, and the Keys.
What are the 2026 Florida loan limits?+
Most Florida counties use the national baseline conforming limit of $832,750 and the FHA floor of $541,287. Miami-Dade and Monroe (Keys) have higher FHA limits. See our Miami-Dade County loan limits page for the full breakdown.
Can I get a Florida mortgage if I live in Colorado?+
Absolutely. We close fully remote — e-sign, mobile notary at closing, and digital appraisal coordination. Most of our snowbird clients never set foot in our office.
How does Florida homeowners insurance affect my pre-approval?+
Florida insurance can be 2–4× higher than other states, especially coastal. We collect a real insurance quote during pre-approval (not an estimate) so your DTI and payment numbers are accurate before you write an offer.
Are condos harder to finance in Florida?+
Some are. Many Florida condos require warrantability review (HOA reserves, owner-occupancy ratio, litigation). We pre-screen buildings before you write an offer to avoid last-minute denials.
Can I use a DSCR loan for a Florida short-term rental?+
Yes — we close DSCR vacation rental loans in Destin, 30A, Orlando, and Cape Coral every month. Qualifying is based on rental income, not your W-2.
