💠Wondering how much you should put down on a home? 🏡
The age-old "20% down payment rule" might not be as strict as you think. While a higher down payment can mean lower monthly mortgage payments and avoiding private mortgage insurance (PMI), it’s not your only option. Many lenders offer mortgages with as little as 3% down!
Here’s what to consider when deciding how much to put down:
1)Your Budget: Make sure you’ve still got savings for emergencies after the down payment.
2) Loan Options: Explore FHA, VA, or conventional loan programs for flexible down payment requirements.
3) Long-term Goals: Do you want to keep more cash for renovations or investments?
