Why Conventional in Frisco?

Frisco's buyer profile was made for conventional financing

Frisco is one of the wealthiest and fastest-growing cities in America. It sits across both Collin and Denton Counties, holds the Dallas Cowboys' headquarters and practice facility, and draws a steady stream of corporate transferees, tech professionals, and DFW families trading up from Plano and McKinney. The typical Frisco buyer has a household income well above $120,000, a credit score comfortably above 700, and is shopping in the $450,000–$750,000 range.

That profile is the textbook case for conventional financing. At 680+ credit, conventional pricing beats FHA by a wide margin — lower mortgage insurance, no upfront MIP, and PMI that cancels once you build equity. The 2026 conforming loan limit of $806,500 covers most Frisco transactions without triggering jumbo requirements. And for buyers in Frisco's active new construction market, having a competitive pre-approval from an independent lender — not a builder's preferred lender — gives you negotiating leverage you'd otherwise leave on the table.

  • Minimum 620 credit (best pricing: 740+)
  • 3% – 20%+ down payment options
  • No upfront mortgage insurance
  • PMI cancels at 78% LTV
  • 2026 conforming limit: $806,500
  • Works for resale and new construction

Why you should shop before signing with a Frisco builder's lender

Frisco has some of the most active new construction in DFW — communities like Fields, The Grove Frisco, Phillips Creek Ranch, and Starwood Frisco are all producing significant volume. Builders in these communities have preferred lenders they push hard, often sweetening the deal with closing cost credits or rate buydowns if you use their lender.

Those incentives are real — but they don't always make up for a higher rate or worse loan structure. Before you commit to a builder's preferred lender, I'll review the offer side by side against what I can do. In many cases, the difference in rate over 30 years outweighs the upfront credit. In some cases, the builder's deal is genuinely good. Either way, you deserve a straight comparison from someone who isn't on the builder's payroll.
