Hii, @Munmun Sakhi I'm interested in purchasing my first home, but I'm unsure about the mortgage process and how to determine what I can afford. What steps should I take to prepare for homeownership, and what factors should I consider when comparing mortgage options and down payment requirements?

Sure, buying your first home is a big step!Look at your income, savings, and monthly expenses. Figure out how much you can comfortably afford for a mortgage payment each month. Your credit score plays a big role in getting a mortgage and determining your interest rate. Check your credit report and work on improving your score if needed. There are different types of mortgages with varying terms and interest rates. Learn about fixed-rate and adjustable-rate mortgages, and decide which one fits your needs best,Start saving money for a down payment on your home. Most lenders prefer a down payment of at least 20% to avoid extra costs like private mortgage insurance. Taking these steps will help you feel more confident about the mortgage process and make informed decisions when buying your first home.
