How much building fits under the limit

With FHA's minimum 3.5% down, the base loan is 96.5% of the price. So the most you can pay and stay inside the limit is the limit divided by 0.965.

Highest purchase price at 3.5% down that keeps the FHA base loan at or under the 2026 limit. Price above that means a bigger down payment, not a dead deal.

Put more than 3.5% down and the ceiling on price rises with it. Price is also only half of it: on a three- or four-unit building, FHA's self-sufficiency test often binds before the loan limit does. The calculator runs both against a county you pick.

VA and conventional in Georgia

Conventional loans use the conforming column. On a 2-4 unit home you live in, Freddie Mac's published maximum is 95% loan-to-value for a mortgage its automated system accepts, but 85% (two units) and 80% (three or four) for a "super conforming" loan above the baseline, and the same 85% and 80% for a manually underwritten one.

A veteran with full VA entitlement has no county limit. If some entitlement is still tied up in another loan, VA ties the guaranty to the one-unit conforming limit even for a fourplex: $832,750 in Georgia. The guaranty is 25% of that figure minus the entitlement already used.
