Banks and other lenders are eager to lend money for its purchase so it is very easy to obtain near 100% financing. Using "other people's money" is a great way to build equity with a very low initial cash outlay. However, being a landlord can bring with it, it's own set of challenges :) Regardless, everyone should explore the possibility of purchasing their own home. Regardless of previous credit history there are often solutions and it really is a special feeling to have those monthly payments go back into your pocket instead of somebody else's. Take care.
