The Weekly Poll: How much money did you put down when you bought your last home?

The weekly poll is saving up for a down payment for a house. Go help it find extra change in the couch cushions.

This week’s poll topic is about down payments and specifically how much money you put down when you bought your last home. I asked this question a long time ago, but with the upcoming FHA guidelines changes that will up the minimum down payment for some buyers (yes, I’m still stuck on that topic), I’m once again curious about how much change you guys coughed up at the closing table.

So what about you? Did you buy your home in the good/bad old days when you didn’t have to put a dime down? Or did you do it the old fashioned way with a nice, big 20% down payment? Or maybe you did something in between? Cast your vote and let me know!

You may need to save up for your down payment to buy your home, but you don’t need a penny to get the latest information on the Knoxville real estate market.  Just have it delivered straight to your feed reader or inbox by subscribing to All Around KTown today!
