The County Line Detail

North Richardson vs South Richardson — income limit can differ

Most of Richardson falls in Dallas County ($97,200 limit), but homes in the northern part of the city — particularly near the Plano border — may fall in Collin County ($119,700 limit). I run this check on every Richardson application before quoting program eligibility, because a $22,500 difference in income limit can determine whether a dual-income household qualifies.

  • I verify your exact county before quoting DPA eligibility
  • TSAHC available regardless of county — limit varies
  • No first-time buyer requirement for TSAHC
  • TDHCA forgiven year 3 — no repayment if you stay
