The truth is, many people qualify for ZERO money down, 3.5 % down, 5% down and any number of other alternative loans.
The Truth About Down Payments
Some Highlights
- There’s a misconception going around that you have to put 20% of the purchase price down when you buy a home. But the truth is, many people don’t put down that much unless they’re trying to make their offer more competitive.
- And if you want to give your savings a boost, look into down payment assistance. There are thousands of programs that offer an average benefit of nearly $17,000.
- To learn more about loan options or down payment assistance programs, connect with a trusted lender and check out downpaymentresource.com.

The big question....
What can I do for you that is different than any other Realtor or Real Estate Broker? The answer is Personal Service.
I will work for you, at your comfort level, not pressuring you to look at, or buy homes that you are not interested in. Buyers, I will not entice you to overspend and be house poor. Sellers, you always choose your selling price. I will inform you of the current market and the trends that I see. I never make choices for you. I inform. All decisions are yours to make. I am only an extension of you, doing as you instruct. I will call you, text you or email you on a time schedule that you would prefer. Frequently if you desire; or not, depending on your requests. I will be working for you; and with you, doing my very best at all times.
My name is Jennifer Louden and I really enjoy helping you.
