Is it better to put money down or buy with $0 down?

Question

Accepted Answer

If you can get $0 down, most of our buyers take it. Your savings stay in the bank for the move, furniture and emergencies, instead of going into the walls. Money down does lower your monthly payment and the interest you pay over time. Some buyers keep enough for an emergency and the move, and put the rest down. Putting 20% down on a regular loan also means no mortgage insurance. We can show you both payments on the same home so you can choose.
