(FHA has individual limits within the national ceiling/floor limits that vary by Metropolitan Statistical Area or MSA).  Keeping the same ceiling stays in line with Fannie and Freddie keeping their lending limits for 2007 the same as 2006 (see post).  The Fannie and Freddie limit set the guideline for the FHA limits with the ceiling being a maximum of 95% of the conforming limit, the floor being 48%.

High cost areas are eligible for high loan limits, and a complete list of those areas is available on this spreadsheet.

Mortgage limits in places like Alaska Guan, Hawaii and the Virgin Islands may have even higher limits.
