Is it possible to buy and finance a house without having capital?
Yes, it is possible to buy and finance a house without having capital through various methods such as obtaining a mortgage loan. A mortgage loan allows individuals to borrow money from a lender to purchase a home, with the house itself serving as collateral for the loan.
