\"Millennials<\/p>\n

A\u00a0report<\/a> released by\u00a0Down Payment Resource\u00a0<\/em>shows that 61% of first-time homebuyers purchased their homes with a down payment of 6% or less.<\/span><\/p>\n

The trend continued among all buyers with a mortgage, as 73% made a down payment of less than 20%.<\/p>\n

An\u00a0article<\/a> by\u00a0Chase<\/em>\u00a0points to a new wave of millennial homebuyers:<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cWe teamed up with Google to help us better understand what customers are searching for and how the home buying landscape is evolving. We found that millennials<\/strong> and first-time homebuyers are making a big splash in the market<\/strong>, and affordability remains top of mind.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Among millennials who purchased homes, David Norris, Loan Depot\u2019s Head of Retail Lending,<\/em> said:<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cIt\u2019s clear from the survey results that Millennials have a lot of anxiety built up about the home buying process.<\/em><\/p>\n

There is good news, however, as there\u2019s more flexibility than most Millennials think regarding how to qualify for a loan and what\u2019s needed for a down payment.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Bottom Line<\/strong><\/h3>\n

If you are one of the many millennials who is debating a home purchase this year, let\u2019s get together to help you understand your options and set you on the path to preapproval.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
