High interest rates should not hold you back from buying a home. Here's why,
with interest rates close to 6% or higher, homes are not selling as fast as before.

Here is a strategy to lower your interest rate: it's called rate buy-down. Instead of asking for a $10,000 price drop, request a $10,000 closing cost credit. You can use this credit to buy down the rate by as much as a full percentage point or to buy out the PMI. Either option can save you anywhere from $200 to $500 or more per month compared to using that $10k to lower the price, which would probably only save you $80 to $100 per month."

Do you want to buy multiple homes with low down payment:
If so this is the fastest way that I am going to show you,

First, buy a four-unit property with only 3% down, and you live in one of the units. Then, you can rent the other units to tenants. This makes you a landlord, but with an owner-occupied mortgage. then after you own it for 12 months, buy a new property and rent out the unit you occupied. After that, you’ll need 5% down on the next property. Keep doing this, buying new properties with 5% down while keeping the existing property as a rental.

Before you know it, you’ll have a sizable real estate portfolio with little capital spent.

Think you need to qualify based on your personal income to buy an investment property in Texas? Not always.

With a DSCR loan, the lender can look primarily at the property's rental income versus its monthly housing expense — not your personal income. Example: if the property brings in $4,000/month in rent and the qualifying housing expense is $3,500, that income may be enough to support the loan. This can be especially useful if you're self-employed or have complicated tax returns.

Got $100K for a down payment on an investment property in Texas? Here's what that actually buys you.

At 20% down, $100K supports roughly a $500K purchase price. At 25% down, that same $100K supports about $400K. On investor loans, your real buying power also depends on the property's expected rent, your reserves, credit, and how the loan is structured.

So $100K doesn't just tell you what cash you have — it tells you how much property you can control.

Thinking you need a big down payment to buy your first home in Texas? Ask about these three strategies first.

Some buyers may qualify for financing with just 3-5% down. Some sellers will cover eligible closing costs or a rate buydown. And depending on where you live and your qualifications, down payment assistance programs may cover part of your upfront costs.

Before you decide you're not ready, find out which of these actually apply to you.
