First Time Home Buyers can put as little as 5% down and receive a Conventional (not FHA) mortgage IF:
1. You haven’t had ownership interest in a home in the past 3 years
2. You are purchasing a House, not a Condo
3. You are using it as your primary residence
4. Credit score and income requirements apply*
If you don’t fit into this box, you can still finance on a Conventional mortgage with as little as 10% down. You’ll need a 720 FICO score but you can avoid the high mortgage insurance payment of FHA and won’t be as limited in your condo shopping.
For more information on today’s available financing or for a free pre-approval consultation, contact me at corinne.guerra@rwfmortgage.com.

It’s true that the government is trying to devise a way to allow buyers access to the $8,000 tax credit at the time of purchase rather than afterwards.
Right now, the only way to obtain the credit (if you qualify for it) is to send in proof of purchase of a home in 2009. This doesn’t help many home buyers use the funds to purchase the home itself.
Wells Fargo is working on creating a temporary loan or “bridge loan” to allow buyers to use those funds towards their down payment and closing costs. It is not yet available and we don’t know how long until it will be or what the details of the bridge loan will look like but when I know more, I’ll post it here.
