One of the greatest obstacles that I have seen home buyers have is saving up enough for a home downpayment so they can get a loan.
If you are having the same challenge then here are the things that you should recognize:
Typically, lenders are going to look for 5%-20% of down payment on a loan. However, there are lots of great programs available depending on your situation, your credit history, your income, are you a veteran, are you a first time home buyer, etc. that you can get in. Some cases have a zero down payment or as low as 3.5% down payment.
It really depends on the factors above and is unique to your situation.
