Lots of people don't even consider buying a home because they're afraid they can't afford it. But for most people, homeownership is within reach - especially with some of the special programs for first-time home buyers. In fact, for many, homeownership is just as affordable as renting - in some cases even more affordable. The best place to start is with a Artisan Mortgage recommended broker. It's free, there's no obligation, and a broker can help you explore all the options of homeownership.
