I'm Bond Peter Njoku (NMLS #2670329). Denton is home to UNT and TWU, a growing medical corridor, and some of DFW's most accessible first-time buyer inventory at $270,000–$380,000. FHA with TSAHC is the most common path for Denton first-time buyers — low down payment, flexible credit, and a grant that doesn't need to be paid back.

Why FHA in Denton?

Denton's university market creates strong FHA demand

Denton's mix of educators, healthcare workers, and recent UNT/TWU graduates makes it one of the strongest FHA markets in Denton County. Buyers here often have steady income but haven't had time to accumulate a large down payment — exactly what FHA is designed for. The 3.5% minimum down with 580+ credit and TSAHC grant assistance makes homeownership accessible without waiting years to save.

Denton County's income limit for TSAHC is approximately $119,700 — one of the highest in DFW — which means most Denton buyers qualify. At 4% on a $300,000 loan, that's a $12,000 grant covering the full down payment.

  • Denton County TSAHC income limit ~$119,700
  • FHA limit $524,225 covers all Denton price ranges
