If you have already started looking for your first home and are disappointed with how little you can buy, for the monthly budget you can afford, take heart!

All first time home buyers, in all markets (not just Denver’s red-hot market), tend to feel the same way. They have a vision of something that’s a little larger, in better shape, with more amenities, and/or on a better block than what they might first see in their price range.

That reality check is common! If this has happened to you, don’t give up! We can help you persist in finding something you’ll like and it’s important to remember that first homes lead to second homes.

Maybe your first home needs to be a condo, because that’s all you can afford. But at least you’re starting somewhere. Starting to learn what it’s like to take on the responsibilities of a property. Starting to get used to making the monthly mortgage payment (and getting the tax deduction). And most importantly, starting to build up equity, which will be critical if Denver’s housing prices continue to rise.

In approximately three to five years, you can potentially move that equity into a larger condo or even a single-family house.

In the meanwhile, it might help to make a list what you’d like in a first home, and separate that list into “needs” versus “wants.” We can then show you properties that are in your price range, that include your “must-haves.”

If you’ve been putting off buying a home because you thought you needed a big down payment, there’s good news! There are first time home buyers programs in Denver that allow you to buy your first home for as little as $1,000.
