Yes, that is an assumption I make in the article. A 20% downpayment is going to be the minimum that you would need for any bank to approve you for a mortgage. Many readers either have that cash in their bank account or the ability to get help from (extremely) generous parents.

Eh? There's FHA (2.5% down), I did that myself. Was easy. Messes with your overall purchasing power because your monthly is so high, though.
