Are you in your 20s and want to own a home but don’t think it’s possible?
This past summer I had the pleasure of helping my best friend, Kayla, and her partner, Brendan, purchase their very first home! Kayla and Brendan are now homeowners and both are currently in their 20s!
On top of that, Kayla and Brendan got money BACK at the closing table! They didn’t pay a single cent at closing in order to get the keys to their new home; they got money returned to them!
Kayla and Brendan were able to take advantage of a down payment assistance program for first-time homebuyers called Chenoa that covered the cost of their downpayment.
With some negotiating on my part, Kayla and Brenden were also able to get their closing costs covered by the sellers!
When we made it to the closing table, Kayla and Brendan’s downpayment and closing costs were covered so their earnest money (basically a deposit to the sellers for the purchase of their home) was returned to them. They didn’t pay anything out of pocket to close!
Kayla, Brendan and their dog, Zoey, love their new home! They now pay 33% less on monthly mortgage payments than they paid for monthly rent in their previous apartment.
Another big congratulations to Kayla and Brendan!
If you’re in your 20s and don’t think homeownership is a possibility for you, it very much could be!
Please reach out with any questions and let’s start your journey of becoming a homeowner!
