Estimates, not a loan quote. Add homeowners insurance, any HOA dues, and mortgage insurance with less than 20 percent down. Your rate depends on your credit, loan type and points. The $140,000 homestead exemption lowers the school portion of the tax once the home is yours and you file. Run How Much Can You Afford with your own numbers.
Where buyers start in Knox Henderson
Condos and townhomes dominate, from 1980s garden condos to new mid rise buildings on Knox. Each pocket draws a different buyer and a different budget, so pick the pocket before you pick the house.
- Knox Street and the Katy Trail blocks: the newest condo buildings and the highest prices per square foot.
- Henderson Avenue and the Cochran Heights streets: bungalows, townhomes and the lower entry point.
Read the HOA documents and the reserve study before you fall for the view. Near the western edge, check whether the address is in Dallas ISD or Highland Park ISD, because that line is the biggest price break in the area.
What to check before you offer in Knox Henderson
- Condos and townhomes. Ask for the resale certificate, the association budget, the reserve study and the last year of board minutes before the option period ends. Dues, special assessments and rental rules decide whether the unit fits you more than the finishes do.
- Every house. Run the Home Check for the flood zone and any MUD or water district, use the total rate on the county tax bill for the monthly cost, and confirm the school zone on the exact address with the district.
Knox Henderson schools
Zoned to Dallas ISD. The Town of Highland Park and Highland Park ISD begin at the western edge of the area, and that line is a large part of the price difference nearby. Verify on the exact address.
How buying a Knox Henderson home works in Texas
- Get preapproved. A lender letter with your real payment, not just the loan amount, so you shop at the right price.
- Sign a buyer agreement and tour. We send the listings that fit and tour with you. The agreement sets out what we do and how we are paid.
- Write the offer on the Texas contract. It names the price, the earnest money held by the title company, and an option fee that buys you a set number of days to inspect and walk away for any reason.
- Inspect during the option period. General inspection plus anything the house calls for from the list above. Negotiate repairs or a credit before the option period ends.
- Appraisal, survey and title. The lender orders the appraisal, the title company issues the title commitment, and you review the survey.
- Close and file your homestead. Once it is your home, file the free homestead application with the Dallas Central Appraisal District (DCAD). It cuts the school taxable value by $140,000, and starting the year after you qualify, it limits increases in the appraised value of the home to 10 percent a year. Tax rates can still change.
Before you tour, run the Home Check on any address for the flood zone and any MUD or water district, and read the Dallas County property tax page so the first bill is not a surprise.
