10 Easy Ways to Save for a Down Payment on a House

Stash Those Raises

Whether it is a 10% pay increase, a performance bonus, or payment from sales bonuses, stash the money. Again, dedicating this to your home is a good way to set aside a substantial amount of money.

In many cases, a 5% raise can be over $1,000 for many people. Take this extra money and put it in your dedicated account for the home, at any frequency in which your company gives raises or performance bonuses.
