The board usually recommends 20% down because it eliminates PMI (mortgage insurance) which adds 100-200 a month to your note.

As a first time homebuyer you can put less than 20% down and buy a house.

One reason everyone suggests purchasing a duplex or triple or 4 pled is because although it costs more you can potentially live in it for free or at a much reduced rate.

Thanks. That clears a lot of things up. That takes a ton of anxiety away knowing that we won't need 20%.
