recently heard that this area has a community developed, called Pradera Oaks (CR51/CANNON RD, Bonney, TX 77583), developed by Wan Bridge, advertised as affordable and has a big rent market and has the potential to appreciation.

After paying closing costs, title fees, appraisal, origination, underwriting, processing, legal and other fees, the typical refinance costs about 1.75 - 2.5% of the loan amount just in closing costs (obviously before people yell at me, this varies drastically by state, but having done loans all over the country I find this to be a pretty accurate estimate).  2) Keeping the average 2% cost in mind and the fact that people typically refinance when rates drop about .75% - 1% or more, I wanted to see if paying an extra point now when I was already paying all the closing costs to buy the rate down made sense. 1 point can get you between .5% - .625% off the rate depending on the days pricing and the coupon you are pricing.

That can be discovered by looking at performance of Airbnbs in the area.
