What is a Zero Down Mortgage?

Many lenders used to require the borrower to have some down payment, whether the down payment is 20%, 10%, or even just 3%. A down payment was required. Countless individuals think the only way to get a mortgage in today’s real estate market is by having a down payment of 10% – 20%, even more in some cases, when it is not the case anymore. Individuals are no longer required to save $30,000 – $50,000 for a down payment.

You can avoid months and even years of saving for a down payment on the property of your dreams without fear of losing the property to someone who has spent years saving 20%. Not only that, due to not paying a down payment, you will also have more cash on hand to help with renovations, furnishings and moving costs.
