Strong growth that exceeds the national economy is where it's at for the San Antonio area! According to the San Antonio Chamber of Commerce, "What we're seeing is a very strong economy continuing on a very confident and robust course," says President Joe Krier. Unemployment is down at a rate of 4.8 percent and it seems that bookings and expenditure totals from the San Antonio Convention and Visitors Bureau have increased.Source: Real Estate Center

About Appraisals >Refinancing Your Home
Interest rates fluctuate as changes occur in the general economy. If you purchased your home when interest rates were higher, you may want to consider re-financing your loan at a lower rate.
You will have to apply for the new mortgage and have your current income eligibility assessed. Depending on how long you have had your present loan, a current appraisal may be required. There are closing costs, such as attorney, title fees, recording and notary fees, and appraisal charges. The biggest factor in your decision should be the length of time you plan to remain in your home. If you will be there for only a year or two more, it might not pay to re-finance. If you will be in your home longer, re-financing could provide you with lower mortgage payments. Your real estate agent can help you work out the numbers and can refer you to reputable home appraisers and mortgage lenders.
