Think you have to put 20% down when you buy a house? Think again. Unless it’s specified by your loan type or lender, you don’t always have to. And the truth is, most homebuyers don’t.

The median down payment for first-time buyers is 9% -- but most of the time you don’t even have to put that much down.

And if you want to give your savings a boost, check out the growing number of down payment assistance programs. On average, they provide about $17,000 to qualified buyers.

Want to learn more? Reach out to a trusted lender.

If your house is sitting instead of selling, work with your trusted agent to reenergize your listing and get new buyers in the door.

Cooler weather usually brings cooler home prices.

Data shows homes are typically about 5% less expensive in the winter compared to when prices usually peak in the summer. That’s because competition slows down and sellers are more open to negotiating this time of year.
