Reading more info has me thinking about more ways to save for a downpayment. Things I'm contemplating include:
1) Setting up an automatic savings plan--wantto do this with ING
2) Getting a part-time job and earmarking earnings for downpayment--hesitant to take on another job right now, but would love to work on Mary Kay business, since it's more flexible
3) Sell some things--I do have some books I've read and don't plan to reread, could take them to the used book store. Won't make much, but every bit helps, and that would help get rid of some clutter. Perhaps I should look more carefully at the rest of my clutter.
4) Eat out less--I should work on bringing my lunch to work more often for starters.
How much should I save up for? %20 would be great, but seems like it would take me ages on my salary!
