What’s true and what’s a myth when it comes to home buying and mortgages? On today’s episode, Bill is going to play myth-buster as we go through 7 different statements.

Is it true you need to put 20% down? Does your down payment cover closing costs? While you don’t necessarily need to put all 20% down, it’s all going to depend on your situation. We’ll also go over how a mortgage pull impacts your credit, whether student loans are a dealbreaker, the difference between pre-qualification vs. pre-approval, and much more. There’s a lot of information out there so we’ll help you sort through these statements and discern fact from fiction.
