Caldwell home loans, the honest version.
Caldwell is the westernmost anchor of the Boise metro’s Canyon County corridor, about 24 miles from downtown Boise, with meaningfully lower prices than Ada County’s Meridian or Eagle; the College of Idaho and Indian Creek Plaza’s revitalization added rental demand and walkable amenities without core-metro land-price appreciation.
That market shapes the loan. In Canyon County, the 2026 one-unit conforming limit is the national baseline of $832,750. Most Caldwell purchases sit comfortably under that $832,750 line, which keeps conventional, FHA, and first-time-buyer options on the table. Limits per FHFA 2026; verify your scenario with us.
