If you have extra money set aside, you will want to put it in the down payment, as this will make a difference in your investment later on and can help with final approvals for the loan that you are receiving. Another set of investments that you will be making is for any extra costs from the team that you have built. For example, a home inspection will usually cost a small amount of money.

You will want to make sure that you walk into your dream home with enough money to get you completely in the door.
