You might have heard you need to put 20% down to buy a home, but that's not always the case! Many buyers put down less, often reserving a larger down payment for competitive offer situations.
If you're looking to boost your savings, down payment assistance programs are a great option. Most first-time homebuyers qualify, with the typical benefit being around $17,000.
