A home is usually the biggest and most important investment we make. Even as they now begin to level out, it's no secret that as mortgage rates rose this past year around the U.S., home prices did as well.

The typical value of a home in the United States increased last year by 14.9%, that means the average home rose to $357,810. While prices in Texas, and East Texas especially, are lower than the national average, we certainly have not been spared from rising home prices.
