Wouldn't that be highly dependent on the market? I couldn't imagine doing 15% in San Diego. Even 25% would be tough I think.

Fairly decent house is $450k. Take off 15% and you're getting a loan for around $390k. What's the mortgage on that, about $2700-3000? The rent on my place is $1850 monthly, it would sell at around $450k.

Take off 25% and you're still looking at a $300k loan. Mortgage around $2000-2300.
