When saving for a home, it's often challenging to reach that 20% down payment needed to avoid PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance). Laurie Sepulveda explores alternatives like "single premium PMI" or using a second mortgage, while also weighing the risks and benefits of these options. Whether it's finding a fixer-upper or rethinking your budget, she emphasizes the importance of personalizing your financial decisions to fit your situation.

Quotes to ponder:

“Just be honest with yourself about what you can genuinely afford before you sign on for a mortgage that will be with you for many years to come.”

“PMI is insurance the homeowner pays in exchange for a smaller down payment. This insurance protects the lender - in case you stop making mortgage payments.”

“Buying a house with less than 20% down means you’ll have a higher mortgage payment and you'll pay more in total interest.”
