First Time Homebuyers Listen Up! It is an incredibly tough time for people who are first time homebuyers. But I always believe there is a way if you really want it. So here are 3 important moves for any First Time Homebuyer.
 
1. You can qualify for a mortgage with as little as 3% down. Yes, it’s true. Forget about the 20% down you’ve heard from your parents, you only need to put 3% down to buy a house.
 
2. It’s tax season. Are you getting a refund? If you were to buy a townhome in Loveland/Fort Collins for $400,000 that is only $12,000 down. If you are a W2 employee, there is a good chance your income tax refund will get you close to the required down payment to buy a house.
 
3. Don’t just get approved for a mortgage loan, get approved as a cash buyer. I can’t stress this enough. The lower end of the real estate market is so competive. A borrower with only 3% down, no appraisal gap, unable to waive an appraisal and nothing to make you offer stand out, will have almost zero chance to buy a home in this market.
