But, if you are expecting a tax refund, you may be able to turn that into a down payment on a home. The average expected tax refund in Texas this year, is enough to cover almost half of the average 3% down payment on a house. If you are interested in turning your tax refund into a new home and a great long term investment, talk to a Realtor today. Schedule a 15 minute call with Matt Social Links are not complete
