Buying A House With No Money Down

Buying a Home with no money down.If you dream of owning a house one day, you have probably realized that one of the biggest challenges is saving money for a down payment. You have already found your dream property, but then the lender asks you to put 20 percent down, which can be tens of thousands of dollars. Fortunately, there are alternative options available, and you may be able to purchase a home for no money down.

VA Loans

One option for qualifying borrowers is a VA loan. As the name suggests, this is a loan that is backed by the Department of Veterans Affairs, and eligible veterans may be able to qualify for a home loan with no money down. You still need to have a credit score that is high enough, and you must have a solid debt-to-income ratio. You will also need to reach out to a lender that has experience with VA loans to see if you qualify.

USDA Loans

Another option that could allow you to purchase a home for no money down is a USDA loan. This is a specific loan program that is available for borrowers located in rural areas who are going to use the property for a specific purpose. Borrowers need to have a credit score of at least 620, meet certain qualifications for debt-to-income ratios, and not learn more than 115 percent of the median income in the area.

FHA Loans

While you may not be able to purchase a home for no money down through an FHA loan, this can make your home loan much more affordable, and you don’t necessarily have to be a veteran or located in a rural area. An FHA loan could allow you to purchase a home for 3.5 percent down as long as you are a first-time home buyer. You may still have to purchase private mortgage insurance (PMI) until you build up a certain amount of equity in your home, but it could make it easier for you to purchase a house for the first time.

Consider exploring some of these options if you are interested in buying a house.
