How long does it take first-time buyers to save?

1. Geography matters
A buyer's path to homeownership may look very different from one market to the next. Expanding the search area, considering nearby communities, or adjusting property types can bring the down payment goal within reach sooner.

2. The 20% myth continues to hold buyers back
Many first-time buyers still assume they need 20% down to purchase a home. In reality, many qualified buyers have options with lower down payment requirements, depending on the loan program type.

3. Area grants and gifts can help bridge the gap
Down payment assistance from area grants may help eligible borrowers reduce the upfront cash needed to purchase a home. These federally funded programs can be especially valuable for first-time buyers who have steady income and strong motivation, but need help closing the gap between savings and cash to close.
