Financing is simply the way you pay for a home over time, usually through a mortgage loan from a lender. Most buyers make a down payment and then pay the balance, plus interest, in monthly installments. The two numbers that matter most are how much home you can qualify for and what your monthly payment will be, and both start with a clear conversation around budget.
