Don't know why you are waiting for 20% down. That is a bit unrealistic these days. If you are worried about PMI you should know there are companies out there not charging that. So if you have 5% or 10% to put down on a home you should consider it. Even if it's a condominium to start it's better then renting unless you live with parents then you can continue to save til you've had enough. LOL.

Some of you think I'm nuts, but owning a home is better then renting. If you want to talk about it I'll be more then happy to give you some information. You don't have to use me if you don't want, but I've been doing this for a while now and I deal with buying and selling homes all the time. Questions about the market, interest rates, process, what ever. Let me know.
