Are there lenders that still allow 10% down?

I am thinking about selling my condo and upgrading to a house. I am concerned about coming up with a 20% down payment. Are lenders still allowing 10% down? I really haven't looked into it much yet. Figured I'd throw it out there!Thanks by iantbl_725_417 from Hoboken, New Jersey. Jan 31st 2013 Reply

There are dozens of lenders that will allow as little as 5% down on conventional financing. Work with a local Mortgage Banker/Broker, rather than one of the big banks or big national mortgage factories. Unlike a bank employee, who is most likely just an order taker, a Mortgage Broker/Banker is Trained, Tested and Licensed in all aspects of Mortgage Origination. We have access to loan products of MANY lenders, not just those of ONE bank, and can properly guide you. But more importantly, we are trained to take a look at the various different options available to you and guide you into the one that makes the best sense for your situation.

Absolutely, there are 10% down programs! Most lenders even have 5% down. Depending on your situation, you can either go with a Conventional loan or an FHA. Anytime you have less than 20% down, there will be mortgage insurance of one form or another - some programs less costly than others. I would recommend that you look into getting Pre-Approved soon since rates may be on the rise later this year. Also, if your situation calls for obtaining an FHA loan, you need to be aware that the mortgage insurance premiums will be increasing on 4-1-13.
