Mississippi 2026 loan limits for duplexes, triplexes and fourplexes
Every county in Mississippi sits at FHA's national floor for 2026: $693,050 for a duplex, $837,700 for a triplex and $1,041,125 for a fourplex. The conforming limit, which caps a conventional loan Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac can buy, is the baseline $1,601,750 for a fourplex statewide.
Every county in Mississippi
The limit caps the base loan, not the price. FHA's upfront premium can be added on top without counting against it. "High-cost" marks a county whose FHA limit is above the national floor.

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.
| Where | Duplex | Triplex | Fourplex |
|---|---|---|---|
| All counties | $718,186 | $868,082 | $1,078,886 |
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 Mississippi
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 Mississippi. The guaranty is 25% of that figure minus the entitlement already used.
