The local figures answer the first question: Maine's statewide summary covers 16 county or county-equivalent records. Within those records, the 2026 one-unit conforming limit runs from $832,750 to $832,750. That range may still help borrowers see why the property county must be identified before a loan amount is assigned a conforming or jumbo category. For borrower planning, the matched records share a one-unit conforming figure of $832,750, but the applicable county row still must be verified for a property. The 16 record count keeps the range tied to the statewide source coverage rather than an assumed national rule. The $832,750 to $832,750 amounts classify loan size within the published program table; they do not establish a borrower's capacity, a property's value, or the price of financing. Before using the $832,750 statewide maximum, county, legal unit count, and expected base loan amount must be known.
Across the same 16 Maine records, the 2026 one-unit FHA limit spans $541,287 to $615,250. In practical terms, the $541,287 low and $615,250 high show that FHA's published boundary also varies within the state. The $541,287 floor and $615,250 high remain county-table values even when they match conforming amounts elsewhere.
