Growing up in an apartment on #Section8 , it escaped my grasp that I could purchase a house before 30. Here’s what I learned buying a house at 26 years old (a thread).
•You don’t need a ton of money.
Let me backtrack for a second. Market price for a house will vary depending on the area you’re looking to buy in, the size of the house, and the SOLD (not sale) prices of houses in the area (same street/same block) within a recent 3-6 months.

• You can purchase a property for a fraction of the cost by using a federally backed loan called “FHA”. You put down 3.5% of the purchase price (+ closing costs) and you can walk away with a new mortgage.
