Trying to determine if I pursue homeownership or if I need more in savings.
Hi everyone,
I(27f) was recently approved for a mortgage loan at 400. My loan is a bit unique because I started an I-099 contract this year so the mortgage officer is doing a combination of business income + personal pay stub. I need to put down 15% for this loan.
I have roughly 60k in savings right now. After closing costs, the down payment I’m pretty much using everything to my name.
I have no debt, but obviously will have little financial security. How much would you recommend I have left in savings after purchasing?
Looking for realistic advice. This would my first home.
