While affordability challenges exist, many first-time homebuyers are still finding ways to enter the market. 32% of all home purchases in 2023 were made by first-time buyers, up from 26% in 2022. The myth that first-time buyers are priced out is dispelled by the numerous financial programs designed to reduce home purchasing costs.
Programs That Help First-Time Buyers
First-time buyers have access to a range of programs that help make homeownership more affordable:
FHA Loans (Federal Housing Administration):
Low down payments (as little as 3.5%).
Lenient credit requirements for buyers with credit scores of 580 or above.
