Can I finance a second home or cabin in Eden, Utah?
Yes. Second homes can be financed with conventional or jumbo loans, usually with at least 10% down, and the home must be for your own use rather than a full-time rental. Investment properties, including short-term rentals, follow different rules, and DSCR loans are an option. Eden is in Weber County, where the 2026 conforming limit is $832,750.
