Regardless of your age, if you take a distribution from a Roth IRA as a first-time home buyer within 5 years of the start of the year you opened it, there's a 10% tax penalty on the earnings, without exception. If you take a distribution of $10,000, the penalty would be $1,000 if it's a traditional IRA.
Contributions can be withdrawn from a Roth IRA at any time without tax implications or withdrawal penalties. Unless it's a qualified distribution, withdrawing earnings before retirement age could incur a 10% penalty and income taxes.
Before making a Roth IRA withdrawal, keep in mind the following rules to avoid a potential 10% early withdrawal penalty: Withdrawals must be taken after age 59½. Withdrawals must be taken after a five-year holding period.

To discourage the use of IRA distributions for purposes other than retirement, you'll be assessed a 10% additional tax on early distributions from traditional and Roth IRAs, unless an exception applies. Generally, early distributions are those you receive from an IRA before reaching age 59½.
The IRS allows you to withdraw the excess contribution from a Roth IRA without penalty if you meet the distribution requirements: You must be 59½ years old. You must have held the Roth IRA for a period of five years.
No immediate tax deduction: Unlike contributions to a traditional IRA, Roth IRA contributions are not tax-deductible. This means you won't get an immediate tax break, which could be a drawback if you're looking for ways to reduce your taxable income now.
You can withdraw contributions at any time without tax or penalty, even if you are under age 59.5 and you've not had a Roth IRA for 5 years. And contributions come out first in Roth IRA withdrawals, so if the amount you're withdrawing is less than the sum of all contributions, you don't need to worry about any of this.
If your investing and tax strategy for retirement includes tax-advantaged Roth accounts, you've probably heard about the IRS's five-year rule. The simple version says the Roth account needs to have been funded for five years before you withdraw any earnings—even after you've reached age 59½—or you could owe taxes.
The IRS allows you to withdraw the excess contribution from a Roth IRA without penalty if you meet the distribution requirements: You must be 59½ years old. You must have held the Roth IRA for a period of five years.
