Home Loans Arizona - California - Nevada - Utah

Saving up enough money to make a down payment on a home can be next to impossible for many consumers. Because of this, there are a variety of programs available to assist people who are interested in buying a home, but just do not have enough money available for a down payment. There are quite a few options available for consumers without money for a down payment. You can either try to find a down payment assistance program in your area or you can try getting approved for 100% mortgage financing, thus eliminating the need for a down payment.

 

Buying a home with a 100%, zero money down home loan is one option for those consumers who do not have enough money to make a down payment. According to a survey done a couple of years ago by the National Association of Realtors, 25 percent of all buyers financed 100% of the purchase price, and 42 percent of first-time home buyers bought with no money down. These numbers have increased even more over the course of the last couple of years as well. Even with lending guidelines tightening up due to the recent real estate market woes, there are still a variety of no money down home loan programs available at this time. Therefore, having money for a down payment is not required and many people can still buy homes without having a down payment available.
