Do You Need 20% Down To Purchase a Home?
Here’s what you need to know about down payments in our current market.
Do you need 20% down to purchase a home? There are certainly many benefits to putting 20% down, but it might not be necessary depending on your situation.

Today I want to cover both the benefits of putting 20% down and when it’s time to consider a lower down payment.
