Reply to comment by SecondaryKitty in Is it unrealistic to put a down payment on a house within 2-3 years of saving by SecondaryKitty

Use the sidebar wiki here and read the prime directive and budgeting sections and get started with that process.

Remember the downpayment is only part of what you need when buying a house, there is also closing costs, moving costs, and an emergency fund. So if you want to put $30k down, you probably need around $40k? Obviously, this varies.
