Generally property taxes run 2.8782. My only other bills are a $500 vehicle lone and a $3000 dollar credit card debt. I've been paying more on the vehicle loan and credit card than what' expected. I am anxious to be out on my own, but don't want to not be able to make ends meet on my salary. Does a home purchase seem sensible right now?en-ushttp://www.trulia.com/voices/profile/Real_Estate_Pro-Cypress_TX-860295/http://www.trulia.com/voices/profile/Real_Estate_Pro-Cypress_TX-860295/Hi Jainola The first step in purchasing a home is to prequalify with a lender then go to a realtor, however; many realtor offices have in house lenders available to prequalify a potential buyer that walks through the door. Don't expect a realtor to tell you if you have enough money to buy a home any more than you'd expect a dentist to tell you what is causing your cough.Wed, 23 Dec 2009 10:24:41 -0800http://www.trulia.com/voices/profile/Real_Estate_Pro-San_Antonio_TX-70675/http://www.trulia.com/voices/profile/Real_Estate_Pro-San_Antonio_TX-70675/Jainola, Did you mean the house is $139,000? Either way, you may certainly want to get a quick PITI quote from a Realtor or just go straight to a lender and get pre-qualified and they will give you a Truth in Lending and Good Faith Estimate which will give you exactly the information you are looking for here.
