What Are FHA Loan Limits?

FHA loan limits are the maximum amount you can borrow with an FHA-insured mortgage in a specific county. These limits are set annually by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) and vary by county based on local median home prices. In 2025, Nevada's FHA loan limits range from the standard baseline to higher amounts in certain counties.

The FHA loan limit determines your maximum purchase power when using an FHA loan with just 3.5% down. If the home you want to buy exceeds the FHA limit for your county, you'll either need to make a larger down payment, seek a jumbo loan, or consider a conventional mortgage.

Pro Tip for Nevada Buyers
Most Nevada homes fall within the FHA loan limits, especially in Las Vegas and Reno metro areas. If you're looking at luxury properties over $500K, ask about conventional or jumbo loan options that may offer better rates.
