Frisco is a city of about 237,000 people north of Dallas, spread across Collin and Denton counties and served mainly by Frisco ISD. The Agency Dallas represents buyers and sellers across Frisco and North Texas, in resale homes and in new construction.

Frisco sits directly north of Plano, with Prosper to the north, McKinney to the east, and Little Elm and The Colony to the west. Most of the city lies in Collin County; its western side lies in Denton County. The U.S. Census Bureau puts its land area at 68.64 square miles.
The Dallas North Tollway runs through the middle, the Sam Rayburn Tollway (SH 121) along the south side, Preston Road (SH 289) on the east side, and US 380 along the north edge.
A Frisco mailing address does not always mean the City of Frisco. Check the city, county and school district for each address before relying on a tax rate or school assignment.

Frisco ISD serves most of the city. Three other districts have territory inside the city limits: Prosper ISD, Lewisville ISD and Little Elm ISD, according to the City of Frisco.
School assignment follows the address, not the city name, and zones change as campuses open. Confirm the district and campuses for each address before you write an offer.
A Frisco tax bill is built from several separate rates, and the mix depends on the parcel. The City of Frisco adopted a rate of $0.425517 per $100 of value for fiscal year 2027, unchanged for a third year, and gives homeowners a 20% homestead exemption plus an additional $80,000 exemption for owners 65 and older or disabled.
The city lists these other rates (per $100) for property within Frisco:
These are components, not a total; the combination depends on the parcel. Texas voters raised the school district homestead exemption from $100,000 to $140,000 in November 2025, and you must apply for it with Collin CAD or Denton CAD.

Many new North Texas communities fund water, sewer, drainage and roads through a municipal utility district (MUD) or a public improvement district (PID), billed on top of city, county and school taxes.
Frisco's own PIDs are small. The city created PID 1 and PID 2 in the Panther Creek area, with total assessments of $2,497.82 and $3,014.59 per lot, payable over 20 years, and is in the process of closing both. Other special districts sit at and beyond the city's edges. The Frisco West Water Control and Improvement District of Denton County, for example, sits north of Little Elm and south of Prosper and covers communities that use the Frisco name and attend Frisco ISD.
Texas law requires a MUD notice, a PID notice, or both, before you sign a binding contract; if a required notice is missing, you may be able to terminate. Ask for the district's current rate and the PID's service and assessment plan. The first tax bill on a new home may reflect only the lot, so budget from the finished value.

Frisco has the most new-build inventory of Plano, Frisco and McKinney, with newer homes, tighter lots and younger trees. New construction made up 31% of Dallas-Fort Worth listings in the first half of 2026, and new homes across the region were listed at prices 9.8% above existing homes.
Builder incentives include rate buydowns, closing-cost help, design credits and discounts on finished inventory, usually under a combined cap. Builder contracts are not TREC forms, the model home sales agent works for the builder, and a private inspection before drywall and before closing is worth the cost.

Frisco homes that are priced right sell in about a month; the median was 33 days in 2026, and the typical sale closed at 96.2% of the original list price. The gap between the $699,900 median asking price and the $650,000 median sale price is where most negotiation happens.
Buyers compare similar floor plans side by side, including new homes with incentives. Pricing tightly to true comparables and disclosing the tax rate and any district assessments up front keeps a listing from sitting.
