FHA Loans
FHA loans are government-backed mortgages that can make buying a home more accessible with a lower down payment (as low as 3.5% in some cases). This can be a great option for first-time homebuyers or those with limited savings.
Down Payment Assistance
Down payment assistance programs can provide grants or loans to help bridge the gap between your savings and the down payment required for your dream home. These programs are often available through state or local governments,non-profit organizations, or even directly from lenders.
