2023 VA Loan Limits by County
Updated: December 23, 2022
Written by Veteran.com Team
VA loan limits act as a cap on the amount a homebuyer can purchase without needing a down payment. Fortunately, VA loan limits do not apply to eligible VA borrowers with full VA loan entitlement.
Veterans with diminished entitlement, typically from an outstanding VA loan or those wishing to hold multiple VA loans simultaneously, must still adhere to VA loan limits.
In most of the U.S., the 2023 maximum conforming loan limit (CLL) for single-unit properties is $726,200, a 12.2% increase from $647,200 in 2022. The ceiling loan limit for single-unit properties in most high-cost areas is $1,089,300 – or 150% of the $726,200 loan limit for most single-unit properties.

How Legislation Changed VA Loan Limits
President Donald Trump signed a bill to eliminate this cap on June 25, 2019. As of Jan. 1, 2020, the federally-established conforming loan limit maximum no longer applies to veterans with their full VA loan entitlement. The change means veterans can obtain a no-down payment VA-backed loan in any part of the country, regardless of home prices.
The new law also temporarily increased the VA funding fee for certain VA loans by 0.15-0.30%.

Who Updates VA Loan Limits?
Under the Housing and Economic Recovery Act (HERA) of 2008, the baseline conforming loan limits change in tandem with Fannie and Freddie to reflect changes in the average U.S. home price.
Alaska, Hawaii, Guam, and the U.S. Virgin Islands have special statutory provisions establishing different loan limit calculations.
