As David said, you may have enough equity in your property to use as part or all of yourvdown payment. Also, what he said about getting pre approved is excellent advice. Look for a mortgage broker in your area and talk to them about what you want to do.

I have a very large walk in closet off the master bath that has a shower and bath tub. The door to the closet is louvered and not solid.
