Down Payments - know how to save for a down payment..................

Seattle buyers are finding less and less in the way of loan programs where they don't need a nice down payment.  The simple fact is that 100% loans are for the most par tin the past - this is good news, really.  Saving for a down payment is responsible behavior and although I admit to getting a few 100% loans myself in the past, I would put money down in today's market.  A down payment is the door to a strong loan and a smooth closing whether you are buying Seattle real estate or Seattle suburb real estate.  Recent buyers I have worked with who had bigger down payments had easier times when it came to closing.  The mortgage companies also will require less in the way of conditions in many cases.
