Local market

The Plano market in context.

Plano sits in Collin County, one of the fastest-growing counties in Texas by population. Home prices here span a wide range, but a significant portion of the market — particularly in established neighborhoods near the Legacy corridor and newer builds closer to Frisco's border — pushes into or above the 2025 conforming loan limit of $806,500. That means buyers at higher price points need to think carefully about whether a conforming or jumbo loan structure fits their situation. Entry-level and mid-range buyers, particularly in older neighborhoods near downtown Plano, may find FHA financing relevant given the Collin County FHA single-family limit of $617,400. VA-eligible buyers have a county VA loan limit that matches the conforming cap, which is a meaningful benefit in a market where prices climb quickly.

Programs available in Plano

Every loan program we close, available across Dallas-Fort Worth.

Plano's price range makes loan program selection genuinely important. Jumbo loans are a practical reality for many buyers here, especially in West Plano and the Legacy West area where move-up and luxury inventory dominates. Conforming loans fit a broad middle tier of the market and keep mortgage insurance costs manageable for buyers who can hit 20% down. FHA loans work well for first-time buyers targeting entry-level homes in older Plano neighborhoods, though the $617,400 limit means FHA won't cover the full range of available inventory. VA loans are a strong fit for the area's veteran community, with the county limit matching the conforming cap at $806,500. Conventional loans with as little as 3% down are also available for qualified buyers who want to preserve cash reserves.

Frequently asked

Plano mortgage FAQs

What is the conforming loan limit for Plano, TX in 2025?
The 2025 conforming loan limit for Plano, which sits in Collin County, is $806,500 for a single-family home. Loan amounts above that threshold require jumbo financing, which carries its own underwriting standards.
Does FHA financing work for buying a home in Plano?
FHA loans are available in Plano up to the Collin County limit of $617,400 for a single-family home. That covers a portion of the market, particularly older neighborhoods and entry-level inventory closer to downtown Plano. For higher-priced homes, you'd need to look at conforming or jumbo options.
What is the VA loan limit in Collin County?
The VA county loan limit in Collin County matches the conforming cap at $806,500. Veterans with full entitlement can exceed that amount without a down payment requirement in many cases — Q Mortgage can walk you through how your specific entitlement affects your purchase.
Do I need a jumbo loan to buy near the Legacy West area?
It depends on the purchase price and your down payment. If your loan amount exceeds $806,500 after your down payment is applied, you're in jumbo territory. Many homes near Legacy West and West Plano are priced in that range, so it's worth running the numbers early in your search.
Can I refinance my Plano home if I originally took out a jumbo loan?
Yes. Jumbo refinances are available, and depending on how your home's value and your remaining balance have changed, you may now qualify for a conforming refinance instead. Q Mortgage can review your current loan structure and compare what's available to you today.
Is Plano a good market for first-time buyers using conventional financing?
Conventional loans with low down payment options are available for first-time buyers in Plano, though the competitive market means being well-prepared financially matters a lot. Programs with 3% down exist for qualified buyers, and Collin County's loan limits give you solid room to work with before hitting jumbo thresholds.
