I received this email today from an Apartment Complex in Bee Caves. Check out the rates in this flyer: 3 bedrooms for 2,415; 2 bedrooms for $1,537 and one bedroom for $982. WHOA!
As housing becomes on demand, apartment rates go up. Why throw away money to lease an apartment and pay more than a house? You don't build equity in a lease, no mortgage tax deduction and plus no enjoyment in home ownership. Talk to a loan officer and speak about getting prequalified. That's the first step. Next is call me so we can find a home in your budget. If you are wanting to stay on a certain monthly mortgage payment I can get help figure out how much money you need to buy.
Its time to get out of apartment renting life and move you to home ownership.
