Buying a home can be a daunting process, particularly as a first-time homebuyer under the age of 35. According to CNBC.com, which highlights a 2016 SmartAsset report, buying a home doesn’t have to be so hard – buyers just have to pick a home in the right city.

The SmartAsset report ranked the top 15 cities for buying a home, based on a number of factors including a population more than 300,000, value per square foot, affordability, ease of securing a mortgage, homeowner stability, market fluctuation, loan rate and history of recent quarters of declining home sales.
