Homes with No City Taxes Stone Oak & Far North San Antonio

Homes with No City Taxes Stone Oak & Far North San Antonio

Did you know that there are communities that have No City Taxes in & around the Stone Oak area as well as other North San Antonio areas?

Withing these areas you will find No City Tax communties that have pre-owned homes as well as communities with new or newly constructed homes and within them you can find homes ranging from the lower $100′s to into the millions!

Property Tax totals are combined of County Taxes, School District Taxes, City Taxes, Hospital District Taxes, Community College Taxes, & a few other taxes….

 Typical property taxes in North San Antonio will range anywhere from 2.7% to 3.2% of the total appraised value.  Homes in communities without city taxes will typically have tax rates in the lower 2% range. (The current San Antonio City Tax is $0.565690.)

Some of the benefits of owning a home with No City Taxes are

  • Ability to buy more home – Because taxes are figured in as part of your total payment by lenders, you can spend more, while keeping the payment the same…
  • Lower Payment – With taxes figured in, the total payment will be less than a home with the same price & city taxes.
  • Free up Cash - With a lower payment, you will have more $.  This money could even be used to pay down your mortgage principal to build equity in your home.
  • Resalability – Many people will search specifically for homes with No City Taxes…

An important thing to keep in mind is that the city could come in & Annex the community in the future.  They are currently required to give a 3 year notice of annexation.

If you are interested in more information about homes & communities in Stone Oak or North San Antonio, give us a call (210) 771-5263, shoot us a text or email today!

San Antonio Housing Market Statistics – End of Year 2011

The San Antonio Board of REALTORS® (SABOR) has relesed the year-to-date housing market numbers for 2011.

san antonio housing market stats year end 2011 decemberSABOR reports that the year-to-date average price for single-family residential homes, which came in at $185,516, showed no change from that of 2010.  The median price did rise by a slight 1% from 2010 to 152,000.

The total number of sales for 2011 was 17,914.  This number is also a 0% change from 2010.

These numbers show that our market is virtually stable. 

We continue to see jobs coming to San Antonio & our economy is strong.

We currently have 6.5 months of inventory, which is considered balanced.  This makes it a buyer’s market & a seller’s market.

Another thing that makes it a great time to buy are the all-time low interest rates.  Buyers are surfacing to take advantage of this great opportunity…which also makes it a great time to sell!

Looks like we are in store for a solid 2012!
