I used to think a 20% down payment was the only way to buy a house

For years I saved every extra dollar, watching prices in my city climb way faster than my savings. Then a loan officer told me about an FHA loan that only needed 3.5% down, and I closed on a condo last month. How many other people put off buying because they believed the old 20% rule?
