Most expensive homes in the Houston metro area by city
Purchasing a home is one of the most important investments there is.
More than a place to live, homeownership is an asset with the potential to tremendously rise in value. But with home prices reaching record heights, affordability plays a huge role for buyers.
The typical home value in the United States was $344,000 in December, 3.6% lower than the year before, but in line with seasonal trends.
High mortgage rates are also making monthly payments more expensive; as of Jan. 25, the 30-year fixed mortgage rate sits at 6.69%.
Although home prices have inflated all across the U.S., some cities command a higher price tag than others. Location, size, age, and condition are all contributing factors to home value.
