MORECAN YOU BUY A HOUSE BEFORE YOU TURN 21?
CAN YOU BUY A HOUSE BEFORE YOU TURN 21?
There’s a general worldview that the younger generations will never be able to achieve homeownership because housing values have outpaced wage growth for decades. This is absolutely true, and we’re not downplaying the seriousness of affordability issues … but, actually, you can become a homeowner well before 30. In fact, if you want to, there’s little to stop you from buying a house before you turn 21; you can legally obtain a mortgage loan at 18, though your ability to do so isn’t at all guaranteed. Is that really for you, though — and how would you do it? Ask yourself these questions to determine how ready you are to buy and start taking appropriate steps to get there if you decide it’s right for you. Are you going to stay in the same area for at least a couple of years? Unlike rent, homeownership isn’t a lease you can cancel after a few months so that you can move on to greener pastures. You’ll be paying a mortgage for at least a decade, if not three decades. You can, of course, sell your house before it’s totally paid off, but you’ll discover that selling a home is much, much more involved than finding a new place to live, packing, and moving. And it won’t necessarily happen on your timeline; it could be months after your house goes on the market before it sells. As a general rule of thumb, don’t buy a house if you think you might leave the area in the next two years. If you don’t live in the house for at least two years, and there aren’t certain extenuating circumstances surrounding your move, then you’ll have to pay capital gains taxes on the property, which could potentially wipe out most or all of the equity you build in two years. How is your credit? You can get mortgage financing for a house with a credit score as low as 580 through some government programs, but the higher your credit score is, the better deal you’re going to get on your mortgage terms. The best mortgage loans have low-interest rates, and lenders will offer you lower interest rates if your credit is good. This can actually be one of the biggest prohibitions for young aspiring homeowners. Credit is built over years, and if you weren’t able to start building yours before you turned 18, you’ll have a limited credit history to reference, which could mean less desirable loan terms — or no mortgage loan at all. Many mortgage brokers can refer you to resources that will help you build or repair your credit. Do whatever you can to increase that credit score number; it’ll pay off, literally, later on. How much money do you have saved? Next to the credit score, a lack of savings is another giant roadblock to getting a mortgage. You’ll probably have to put at least a little bit of money down on the house because most mortgage loans require at least 3.5 percent, and 20 percent is ideal; with a 20-percent down payment, you won’t have to pay private mortgage insurance, which can save you thousands of dollars over the years. That said, saving up a full 20-percent down payment is incredibly difficult if you’re trying to do it before you turn 21. It may be a better financial move to save whatever you can and pay the mortgage insurance; on many conventional loans, the mortgage insurance disappears after you’ve acquired a certain amount of equity in the home. What can you afford? Many first-time homebuyers are often surprised to learn what they can afford to buy — they might have been able to buy years ago if they’d only known! So don’t assume that you can’t buy a house just because you’re young and haven’t reached your full earning potential. It’s entirely possible that you could be pre-approved for a mortgage loan today. But that loan might not cover the house of your dreams. You’ll need to get a good idea of how much you can afford to spend on your mortgage every month, what that means for the range of home prices you want to consider, and whether that price range makes sense for your metro area. Where can you afford it? Within metro areas, there is often a wide variance in price range. You have your entry-level starter homes and your massive estates, and all the homes in between, typically grouped near other homes like them. Maybe you’ve got your heart set on a certain neighborhood that’s simply unaffordable for you right now, and the neighborhoods where you can afford to buy don’t appeal to you at all. This may be the point where it’s beneficial to talk to a real estate agent. They buy and sell homes all over your area, and it’s quite possible they know about nooks and areas where you can afford and where you’d actually like to live — and that you had no idea existed. Do you understand the additional costs of homeownership? Your mortgage loan is going to include both principal (the balance of the loan) and interest (additional money charged for borrowing). But some buyers don’t realize that it also includes taxes and homeowners’ insurance, all packaged into one payment. This means that to truly understand what your monthly payment will look like, you might need to get some quotes on homeowners’ insurance from a local insurance agent and research property taxes. Some online affordability calculators have some of these metrics baked in, but they aren’t always accurate — especially insurance rates. So double-check them before you decide to trust them. Is your household going to grow anytime soon? This doesn’t necessarily mean getting married or having a baby; maybe you want to get a dog in the near future. If you think you might be making changes to your household in the next few years, wrap them into your home search. That way you can ensure you’re buying a place that will grow with you, so you can be comfortable there for the immediate future and then some. Can someone help co-sign? One solution to the problem of low or no credit and a low down payment is to have a parent or other family member co-sign on your mortgage loan. This is a huge favor to ask, and you should be aware that if you default on your loan, your co-signers on the line for whatever you owe. It’s not something to ask or give lightly, and if someone does offer to co-sign for you, make it your top priority to pay your mortgage on time so that you can preserve that relationship for years to come. Are you set on a single-family home? For many young buyers, a single-family home with a yard might not make the most sense. If you want a place of your own, looking at townhomes or condos, or even a multi-family property like a duplex up to a four-unit apartment building, could be a much better decision for you than holding out for a single-family house. If you’re in a townhome or a condo, you are still building equity that can be leveraged if or when you do decide to move up to a house in the future. And if you have the ability to purchase a building with multiple units, you could wind up paying off most or all of your mortgage by renting out the additional units. (And you’ll still get all the advantages of living in your property, including lower rates on homeowners’ insurance.) Could you rent out some rooms to help pay the mortgage? Even if you can’t afford to purchase a building with multiple dwelling units, maybe you can get a place that’s a little bigger than you’d need on your own and rent out one of the bedrooms to a friend. That way you could supplement your mortgage, or possibly pay it off entirely, with rental income. Some homeowners vacate on weekends to rent their places on Airbnb, which could be another option for you. How stable is your life in general? If you’re prone to changing jobs frequently, wanderlust, and generally don’t have — or want — a lot of stability in your life, homeownership might be a big stretch for you right now. It’s OK to put the goal on pause if you’re not sure you’ll be able to achieve it immediately; just wait until things settle down (and work on that credit and savings in the meantime!).

I had offers within minutes of my house going online. Linda gave me excellent advice on how to proceed. The whole process was a great experience and I’m very thankful for their help! I would definitely recommend Linda or anyone on her team if you are selling your house!
- Elise McDermottI have known Linda O'Hara for more than 25 years. In that time she has helped us and our daughters buy and sell many homes. We just sold our home this October. Linda is a straight shooter and has always been honest with us on the value of our homes. Not only did she negotiate a great deal on the home we bought, but she sold our prior home in one day! It was a clean, smooth transaction and I highly recommend consulting with Linda and her team for your home needs.
- Melissa SpencerI've known Linda a long time and knew she's where I'd turn when ready to buy my first house. I was absolutely right, the whole team was great. My agent, Ryan DeLuca was perfect for the job. He responded quickly to any and all questions I had, and did a great job coordinating meetings and such with the whole team. He was very personable and a true pleasure to work with. The closing was December 30th 2022. What a great way to start the year. I would recommend Linda's team for anyone looking to buy a house.
- Yuz AleshLinda & Tim, I would never be able to do it without you guys! You put so much thought, energy, and imagination into selling my house. You did for me what I could not at this difficult point in my life. THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart. Irene

- Betsy CliffordI have used Linda's team in selling two homes and buying a house. They are extremely professional and always looking out for their clients' interests. When we were selling our first house, Jim Foley went above and beyond to make sure some repairs were done properly prior to sale while I dealt with a family illness. I just used Jim and Linda again to sell a home, and their professionalism was outstanding. They advertised, staged and sold the house quickly and with no issues. Linda is a fierce negotiator on behalf of her clients and her years of experience show in any advice she might offer. I would highly recommend Linda O'Hara and Jim Foley. They make a great team.

- John SerbentLinda's Team was exceptional. They were very well thought out with their marketing plan for the sale of our house, and they were more than willing to assist us with even the smallest of issues. Most importantly, they delivered on their price promise, and then some. For a stressful time, it was a positive experience.
- Robert OlsonWe were pleasantly surprised that our house sold after only two weeks on the market. We thought that we would be doing open houses and showings for months! Linda and her team were very professional and handled all of the details for us. They also had contacts for reliable people to assist us in our move to the southwest. We thank Linda and her team for helping to make a stressful life event much easier for us. Highly recommend!!
- Emily KellyMy boyfriend and I are first-time home buyers, and could not have been in better hands than Paige. She lead us through the entire house hunting/buying process with expertise, ease, and the utmost professionalism. Paige is very knowledgeable about the area, was excellent at suggesting negotiation tactics when it came to putting our bid in on the home and was on top of everything during the closing process! Even after buying the home, Paige acted as our point of contact when working with the original owners to discuss post-purchase problems/solutions. We loved working with Paige, and would highly recommend her to anyone planning on moving into the areas she operates in!
- Stephanie SienaSellerMy experience with Emily Curtis was great especially during Covid, having a lot of forms electronic and she was able to send them over fast! Emily was very accommodating to my crazy schedule/hours, even delivering forms last minute when I needed them! The whole process was very smooth and stress-free I loved that aspect. She had a great knowledge of real estate and answered the questions that I had. If she didn't know she was resourceful in finding the answer quickly. Overall, I was very pleased and look forward to using Emily when Jordan and I decide on a home together!
- Sean CarrollOftentimes, effectively and successfully executing major life decisions requires building a large amount of rapport and trust in a short amount of time. This is in direct opposition to how some people operate—myself included—until my wife and I met and hired Paige Slocum to list, advertise, show, and sell our home. In our first meeting Paige laid out the process, answered all of our questions, and told us exactly how the selling process would work. There was not a single step in the process that Paige did not predict almost 8 weeks in advance. Paige truly made this process as painless and transparent as possible. We recommend her to absolutely anyone looking to list or buy a home. She will be the advocate you did not know you needed.
- Rich and Michele DubayWe recently sold and purchased a new property in CT. Our agent, Ben Zupan, was fantastic to work with! He was very knowledgeable of the current market trends and gracefully guided us thoroughly in the sale and purchase of our new property. He was very helpful and straightforward with us throughout the entire process. He even went as far as helping us stage our home to make it look to its best potential! He is professional in every aspect of the real estate business. He would respond quickly if we sent him a text message or called him. He was an amazing liaison between all parties for the real estate transactions to make us feel confident that everything was moving smoothly. Top-notch customer service! Definitely recommend his services to others, and we would absolutely use his services again.
- Paige WoodruffEmily Curtis went above and beyond helping me to find a home when I was still living 1000 miles away and relocating to Connecticut. She spent countless hours driving around using video to show me homes. When it came to writing offers, she had to help with not one, but six different home offers because of the insane market. She was there from the beginning to the end, and always with a smile!
- Daniel OttKILLINGWORTH, CT"We developed a great bond over the past year. It was a long haul and we both learned a lot. Things happen that our outside of our control but the almost daily interactions with our agent made the journey memorable."
- Andrew MastronunzioChaplin, CT"After trying for over a year with a local company, we listed with Raveis and immediately we were impressed with how much more organized, data-driven, and comprehensive the effort was. We got a significant increase in traffic both online and in-home."
- Joseph CaprioMiddletown, CT"It was a pleasure doing business with Brittany O'Hara and Raveis. Brittany gave us advise and kept us informed. She made the process almost seamless. In addition, she went out of her way, after business hours, and came to our rescue when we were locked out of our home. I would not hesitate to recommend Brittany or Raveis."
- Elmer BerghornMiddletown, CT"Jody was awesome with recommendations for staging, professionals to do repairs, and a lawyer for closing, who were all helpful"
- Brian/Kelly OlseksiwPORTLAND, CT"We have used Jody Bonaiuto for all our moves in the last 10 years and she's always done a fantastic job. She's always there for us and makes sure that everything goes smoothly from beginning to end."
- Jill and BubbaMiddletown"Jim was very responsive and enthusiastic throughout the home buying process. He went out of his way to make phone calls on our behalf and provided valued professional guidance. Jim stayed up late writing the contract the night we told him we wanted to make an offer!"
- Al and LisaMiddletown"We could not have asked for a better agent than Jim Foley to help us navigate the sale of an estate home. Jim helped us every step of the way as we prepared the house for sale. When we finally were ready to put the house on the market, Jim was confident that it would sell fast and in 2 days we had a great offer! We cannot thank Jim enough for all he did and for just being a great person!"
- Christian MielertPortland, CT"My listing agent, Brittany O'Hara, was excellent! She offered great ideas to help me with the sale of my property, and was respectful of the ideas I had. She was also a great communicator throughout the process, and helped me to stay positive when we had setbacks. I would recommend her services in a heartbeat."
