🔑 Your dream of homeownership may be closer than you think.
Rising inflation is making it harder for first-time buyers to save for a down payment, with the Consumer Price Index hitting 4.2% in May, its highest level in recent months. The median down payment currently sits at $23,400, representing just 5.4% of today's median home price of $429,500. To avoid private mortgage insurance, buyers actually need $85,900 for a true 20% down payment.
A middle-income family saving $500 a month at a 4% return would need more than 11 years to reach that goal, by which point the same home could cost $600,000.
