A lower rate bought down with points isn't always the cheapest loan. Your real cost depends on your loan size, credit, and how long you keep the mortgage — run your own numbers.

What to know about getting a mortgage in Florida

Florida’s defining mortgage cost isn’t the rate — it’s insurance. State-average premiums run roughly triple the national average, several national carriers have pulled back from the market, and lenders require proof of coverage (including separate wind or flood policies in many ZIP codes) before closing. Get insurance quotes before you rate-shop, not after.

The 2026 conforming loan limit in most Florida counties is $832,750 for a single-family home (designated high-cost counties go higher). Loans above that are jumbo — expect tighter underwriting and different pricing.

First-time buyer help in Florida
Florida Housing Finance Corporation → Florida Housing’s first-time-buyer programs combine 30-year fixed loans with up to $10,000 in down-payment and closing-cost assistance. Program rates come through participating lenders — compare them against the credit-union rates above before committing.

Frequently asked: mortgages in Florida

Straight answers, grounded in the data on this page.

What is the best mortgage rate in Florida right now?+

The lowest conventional 30-year rate we're tracking in Florida this week that anyone can join is 6.750% from FAIRWINDS Credit Union, 0.65% below the U.S. average of 7.400%. It's a real posted rate, not a teaser — your actual rate depends on your credit, down payment, and loan type. Credit unions with restricted membership (military or employer-based) sometimes post lower; those are listed below with their eligibility.

How much do you need to put down for a house in Florida?+

The median home price in Florida is about $405,000, so 20% down is roughly $81,000. Many buyers put down far less: conventional loans go as low as 3%, FHA 3.5%, and VA/USDA can be 0% for those who qualify (with mortgage insurance when you put down under 20%).

Which credit unions can Florida residents join for a mortgage?+

Florida residents can currently get posted mortgage rates from FAIRWINDS Credit Union, SPACE COAST Credit Union, Navy Federal Credit Union, and others. Many credit unions let anyone join through a small one-time association membership — each one's eligibility and exact join steps are on its page.

What first-time homebuyer programs does Florida have?+

Florida's housing finance agency is the Florida Housing Finance Corporation. Florida Housing’s first-time-buyer programs combine 30-year fixed loans with up to $10,000 in down-payment and closing-cost assistance. These programs work through participating lenders, so you can (and should) still compare the program rate against the credit-union rates on this page.

What is the conforming loan limit in Florida?+

For most Florida counties the 2026 conforming loan limit is $832,750 for a single-family home (designated high-cost counties go higher). Loans above the limit are jumbo, which typically means tighter underwriting and different pricing.

Does RatePerch take referral fees from lenders in Florida?+

No. We don't take affiliate or referral fees, sell contributor data, or rank lenders by commission. Borrower-quoted rates are submitted anonymously by real Florida residents, and credit-union rates are copied straight from each lender's public rate sheet.
