Inside the Texarkana mortgage market.
Texarkana’s unique position as a literal two-state city means buyers gain Texas’s absence of state income tax while accessing the broader Ark-La-Tex job base centered on the Red River Army Depot, healthcare, and manufacturing; its affordability floor is among the lowest in any Texas metro-adjacent market.
That’s the Texarkana backdrop the loan has to fit. The 2026 conforming number for Texarkana buyers in Bowie County is $832,750 — the baseline every Texarkana file starts from. With Texarkana homes mostly under $832,750, conventional plus FHA plus USDA all work on Texarkana files. Price-wise, Texarkana runs entry-level. Source: FHFA 2026 limits. We’ll verify your numbers.
