The Keller market

What it costs to buy in Keller — and how to finance it.

Keller ranks among the wealthiest US cities by median household income, yet sits within Tarrant County’s standard Texas baseline limit — meaning buyers access luxury-caliber neighborhoods with conforming products; its deliberate no-interstate geography has structurally limited through-traffic and maintained residential character for decades.

That’s the Keller backdrop the loan has to fit. The 2026 conforming number for Keller buyers in Tarrant County is $832,750 — the baseline every Keller file starts from. Since typical Keller prices stay under $832,750, a Keller buyer keeps conventional, FHA, and move-up all in play. Keller’s price tier is above the national norm. FHFA resets these limits each year; we verify before we quote.

FAQ

Real questions from Keller buyers.

What's the conforming cap on a Keller home loan?

In Keller, a one-unit home can carry a conforming loan of up to $832,750 for 2026, under FHFA's limit for Tarrant County. That is the national baseline with no high-cost adjustment, so a loan above $832,750 is a jumbo loan. For two units, the Tarrant County conforming limit is $1,066,250.

What happens when a Keller price beats the loan limit?

When the loan amount, not the price, goes above $832,750, a Keller purchase moves from a conforming loan to a jumbo loan. Putting more down keeps the loan at or under $832,750, which keeps it conforming. Licensed partner brokers originate the loan, and Choice Home Mortgage compares quotes from many lenders on your file.

What parts of Keller do you work in?

Every part of Keller, including Newton Ranch, Hidden Lakes, Bear Creek Estates and The Sanctuary. The neighborhood affects the appraisal, which compares recent nearby sales, but the loan terms come from your credit, income and down payment. Licensed partner brokers originate loans across Newton Ranch and The Sanctuary, and we coordinate them by phone and online.

Can an out-of-state broker really cover Keller, TX?

Yes, because a licensed partner broker in Texas originates the Keller loan while Choice Home Mortgage, licensed in California, coordinates it. Our own license is California's (NMLS #2629064); we keep no local office, and the file runs by phone and online. Owner Esther Buede coordinates the file, and many lenders compete for it.

What if I'm buying just outside Keller?

Buying just outside Keller changes nothing on our side; we also arrange loans in North Richland Hills, Bedford and Haltom City through licensed partner brokers. Loan limits are set county by county, so the limit is re-checked for whichever town the home is in. Licensed partner brokers originate those loans and Choice Home Mortgage coordinates them, the same way as a Keller file.

Do I ever need to visit an office for my Keller loan?

No. A Keller loan runs by phone and online, and Choice Home Mortgage has no local office to visit. A licensed partner broker in Texas originates the loan, and Choice Home Mortgage (California NMLS #2629064) coordinates it and compares many lenders. Owner Esther Buede is your point of contact from the first call to closing.
