“Times have been changing, but also like the rules and the programs that become available have changed to accommodate the best that they can for the way that things have gone. Yes, the home prices have gone up from when our parents bought, and they could do 20% down. [...] Home prices got way more inflated with what people are buying right now, but [...] it’s also adjusted to overcome that.” - Jennifer Anusky
“I would argue that 20% [as a down payment] is not necessarily the best thing. But that is a remnant of a bygone era, and now the ‘conventional’ wisdom is: ‘Well, if you can, you should’.” - Seth Lejeune
