TIPS TO HELP YOU SAVE FOR YOUR DOWN PAYMENT

Saving for a down payment on a house can be a daunting task, but with a solid plan and a bit of discipline, it is possible to achieve your goal of homeownership.

LET'S DISCUSS SOME IDEAS

Creating a budget- This is an important step in saving for a down payment. Identify areas where you can cut back on expenses and redirect that money towards your down payment. This could be things like eating out less, cutting cable or subscription services, or buying less clothing etc...

Maximize your Income- This could include getting a higher paying job, asking for a raise, or taking on freelance work. Another quick way to make extra cash is by selling unused items in your home.

Reducing debt- By paying off high-interest debt, you will free up more money to put towards saving for a down payment.

Set up automatic transfers- Consider setting up automatic transfers from your checking account to a dedicated savings account for your down payment. Also, you should not be putting your money in a regular savings account. Opening a high-yield savings account is more effective!
