Palm Coast home loans, the honest version.
Palm Coast is a planned community on Florida’s First Coast midway between St. Augustine and Daytona Beach, with Atlantic access at Flagler Beach and the Intracoastal — a combination drawing a structurally growing retirement and relocation market from the Northeast and Midwest at prices below comparable coastal Florida metros.
That’s the Palm Coast backdrop the loan has to fit. In Flagler County, a Palm Coast one-unit purchase conforms up to 2026’s $832,750 baseline for Palm Coast files. Under that $832,750 line — where most Palm Coast purchases sit — conventional, FHA, and VA all stay in play. Per FHFA’s 2026 schedule — we’ll check your exact numbers.
