Affordable Housing in San Antonio

March 4, 2013 by khproperties Leave a Comment

San Antonio House

Can I afford to buy a home?

Most people ask this question when they first start thinking about owning a home. Affordability is the key to not only purchasing your home, but retaining it for years to come. While places like San Antonio (and Texas in general) remain much more stable markets than places like California, Florida, and Nevada; we too have our share of affordability issues for homeowners. We’ve consistently remained below average for percentage of home ownership compared to national averages. The good news is that there are assistance programs out there to help those thinking about owning a home. While these programs can’t help everyone, there do exist and maybe just the thing you’ve been looking for to take you from a life of renting to the world of home ownership.

A Helpful Website

The Texas Association of REALTORS® has a helpful website, Texas Home Programs, to assist you in finding potential programs that can assist you in making your dream of buying a house a reality.
