You may have heard that you need 20% down to close on a home.. While it does have it's advantages - its not true! You can put down as little as 3.5%.

There are also many First Time Home Buyer Programs, Closing Assistance, Zero Down Payment Options as well (if you qualify) to help you Buy a Home.

Don’t let the myth of the 20% down payment hold you back from owning your dream home.

When it comes to buying a home, having a clear list of what you want—and what you can afford—makes all the difference. Here's how to break it down:

✅ Affordability – Know your budget. This includes your down payment, monthly mortgage, taxes, insurance, and possible HOA fees. Stick to what’s comfortable for your finances.

✅ Neighborhoods You Like – Do your research! Consider location, school districts, safety, and the overall feel of the community. Proximity to work and family is key!

✅ Home Features & Amenities – Make a list of your must-haves (number of bedrooms, bathrooms, yard size, etc.), and balance that with your desired ‘nice-to-haves.’ A big yard for a pet, a garage for storage, or an open kitchen?

✅ Convenience to Favorites – Consider how close your potential new home is to stores, coffee shops, restaurants, gyms, or parks. The conveniences you enjoy every day matter too!

Taking time to refine your home search list gives you focus, helping you find the right home in the right place at the right price.
