I am excited to purchase my first condo and I want to know if I can accomplish this with little to no money down? Can I leverage my credit to obtain a property? This will be my primary residence but I plan to turn it into a rental in the future. I live in Hawaii and this is my first time buying properties. by oracle453 from Honolulu, Hawaii. Jan 17th 2022
Your standard owner occupied conventional home loan starts at just 3% down payment for loans under $647,200 in most of the country, and $970,800 in high cost areas like Hawaii. There may be other options for you too, like down payment assistance. Talk to a local mortgage broker for more information. I lend in MN WI IA SD ND.

Checking in with what island you are on? It looks like Honolulu. Joe gave a great answer below, I just wanted to add a couple of things, we have a lot of condotels in areas which change things up, and if you are on the big island you have lava zones to contend with.
