FAQs

To help you make informed decisions, we've compiled answers to some of the most commonly asked questions.

The amount you need for a down payment depends on the type of loan and your financial situation. While 20% is a common benchmark, many buyers put down less—some conventional loans allow as little as 3%, and FHA loans require just 3.5%.
What's included in my monthly mortgage payment?
What is a 2-1 buydown, and how does it work?
Who pays for the 2-1 buydown—the buyer, the seller, or the lender?
What are closing costs, and how much should I expect to pay?
How does my credit score affect my mortgage rate?
