In former years home buyer

down payment, varying from
$1,000 10 50, 500. If The buyer was

A great many people who were
able 10 get beyond the initial
griefs Of home financing bought
these homes and found out later

Today both methods and results
are different. Borrowers now

payments which include interest,
