 TITLE: Where Should You Save Your Down Payment Money? CONTENT: Save More for Your Down Payment\n-------------------------------\nInterest and earnings are great, but the fastest way to grow your down payment is by contributing more money. Here are a few ideas for maximizing your savings:\n*   **Budget, budget, budget.** Avoid overspending and be systematic about saving. Fine-tune your budget periodically to find additional ways to save.\n*   **Use automatic savings or a savings app.** By \"rounding up\" your transactions and squirreling the change into savings or otherwise gamifying the process, your bank's mobile app or a dedicated app like Qapital or Digit can help you tuck away a few extra dollars painlessly.\n*   **Look for ways to generate additional income**, then funnel your earnings into savings. This may mean getting another job or looking for ways to generate passive income.\n*   **Throw in your tax refund**, work bonuses and other windfalls. It all adds up. END
