Every West Palm Beach loan starts from that reality. A one-unit West Palm Beach purchase conforms to $832,750 in 2026 — the national baseline Palm Beach County runs on. Most West Palm Beach purchases sit comfortably under that $832,750 line, keeping conventional, FHA, and down-payment-assistance open for West Palm Beach buyers. FHFA resets these limits each year; we verify before we quote.
