There are so many things that go into deciding to buy your first home. The hardest part is getting together that big down payment.

It's a great investment in your future and is always a great step toward financial freedom. Rent prices in some Texas cities rival most mortgages, so there isn't a good excuse not to own.

Even with our current interest rate rate hikes, owning a home is always going to be a winning proposition. If you already live in Texas, you have won half the battle.

Texas Offers The Best Markets For First-Time Homebuyers 

According to a recent 2023 study at smartasset.com Texas has the nation's top three markets for people making the plunge into home ownership.  Each of those markets offers a mix of affordability, inventory, future growth, and a lack of home buyer competition perfect for getting into your first home.

It's hard enough to buy your first place without worrying about bidding wars in a hot real estate market. These types of situations can have a negative effect on your thoughts about buying a new home.

It also adds to negative thoughts that you can't afford what you truly want in a "starter" home. It is discouraging when the top 3 homes on your list are already sold the next day for over asking price.
