What is happening in El Paso . Tx

As the year draws to an end, I am grateful that our market has not been as terrible as other areas of the country. Our unemployment rate is at about 9.5% and that is just a little bit higher than the state of Texas.

Home sales are not bad, considering what is happening across the country. November stats were even better than Octobers' with sales being almost 150 more in November than the same time in 2008!! How about that, way to go El Paso.

I think that 2010 will be a good year for Real Estate in El Paso, TX because I feel that interest rates will remain low and after talking to one of the lenders that I like to use, even investor loans are decent. You can get a great rate with only 20% down and with rates low your cash flow possibilities are even better.

For home purchases the extended tax credit is great and even better it now included repeat buyers. Please be sure to read up on the qualifications so you have the correct information.

If you are thinking of buying a home soon, don't wait for rates to go back up. DO it NOW!!!!
