Many buyers think they need 20% for a down payment, but most Phoenix buyers put down much less.

Typical Down Payment Options
VA and USDA loans can require 0% down for eligible buyers, conventional loans can start at 3% for qualified buyers, and FHA loans start at 3.5%. Putting down 20% on a conventional loan avoids private mortgage insurance, but it is not required to buy.
Besides your down payment, plan for earnest money, inspections, appraisal and closing costs, which often run a few percent of the price. Some buyers negotiate seller credits to help with those costs.
