How much do I need for a down payment in Delaware?
It depends on the loan: VA and USDA can be 0% down, FHA is 3.5%, and many conventional loans start at 3% to 5%. Delaware buyers should also plan for closing costs of roughly 4% to 6% of the price, which DSHA assistance or seller credits can help cover.
