Having cash for a down payment is the biggest obstacle most first time buyers face so you are not alone!  Here are some ideas for funds:
  • Gift from a family member (this includes cousins and even a fiance)
  • Borrow from a 401k
  • Tap into your IRA
  • Finance a car or boat
  • Get a loan on another property

Or... ask your lender about zero down loan options.

Always talk to your trusted loan officer before making any of these decisions however as rules do apply!
