First time home buyers looking for property in the Denver area often prefer to live in a single family house.

No shared walls. No homeowners association (HOA fees). No rules or regulations, except for city zoning codes. Freedom to have pets. Yards. Garages and/or off-street parking. Upstairs and downstairs (even with one-story houses in Denver, you usually have a basement).

These are some of the features of a single-family house that first time home buyers love! For first time homebuyers who want to live in central Denver, the more affordable houses are usually 600 square feet, 800 square feet, 1,000 square feet, or 1,200 square feet, plus basements.

Most single-family houses in Denver’s most popular neighborhoods (Highlands, Wash Park, Congress Park, and City Park) were built in the 1920s-1940s. This means that unless they were completely remodeled, they have small rooms. Not everyone is fond of small living rooms, small kitchens, small bedrooms, and small bathrooms but these brick homes can be charming.

Widen your search for a first home to include the suburbs, however, and you’ll find larger houses, for the same price.

If you’re considering a single-family house as your first home, here are criteria to consider:

It’s often easier to find a first time home loan for a house than it is for a condo or a loft. To qualify for an FHA loan or VA loan, the house needs to be in good shape, not in need of a new roof and/or other major repairs.
