My wife and I are first time home buyers and are struggling to figure out if we should go for a 20% downpayment (which will be kind of a stretch for us) or go for lesser DP, say 15% or 10%. The fact that a less than 20% downpayment attracts additional mortgage insurance (PMI), we are not able to make up our minds whether we'll be better off paying extra money in insurance every month or pulling our means to pay full 20% down.

Suggestions from experts out here or those been in same situation?

It’s infuriating to me, as a POC how many fucking times I applied, emailed and reached out to so many of these agencies without getting even the time of day.
I’ll believe their supposed commitments, when I actually see the results.
