Colorado conforming loan limits are established by the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA), which is required to track average home prices in Colorado and the rest of the country. The FHFA is also required to adjust the baseline conforming loan limit every year as needed to reflect fluctuations in home values.
As such, if home prices increase quite a bit, the FHFA will likely increase the corresponding conforming loan limits to keep pace with an increase in home values. Conforming limits are generally set at 115% of the average price of homes in each area, though they can go above this level in high-cost centers.
In 2023, the conforming limit for most counties in Colorado is $726,200. There are a few exceptions, however, in which the loan limits are much higher than this, which can be seen in the chart above.
Check out our mortgage loan limit tool for conventional, FHA, and VA loans.
As mentioned earlier, an increase in home prices is the main reason why conforming loan limits increase every year. In Colorado, the median home price reached $575,013 as of December 2022, which was an increase of 10.9% from the same time the previous year.
In different parts of the state, the increase in prices was even higher, such as in Colorado Springs which saw an increase in home prices of 7.5% over 2022, reaching $476,721 by year-end.
In response to these increases, the conforming loan limits have also increased.
“The Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) today announced the conforming loan limit values (CLLs) for mortgages to be acquired by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac (the Enterprises) in 2023. In most of the United States, the 2023 CLL value for one-unit properties will be $726,200, an increase of $79,000 from $647,200 in 2022.”
With the exception of a few, most counties across the nation are seeing higher loan limits in 2023 compared to 2022.
