Local FAQ

Conventional Investment in Amarillo, answered.

Does conventional financing cover the whole Amarillo market?
On price, yes. The highest submarket value in the area is Canyon at $301,463 (Zillow, July 2026), and the 2024 average mortgage loan was $235,200 in Randall County and $207,500 in Potter County. Thirty-year investor product covers the entire market. The real filters are the file and the property, not the loan size.

What happens to a low-priced house like a Borger rental?
Check the loan size before you chase the yield. Zillow's July 2026 value for Borger was $109,012 against $933 rent, a 10.3% gross yield. At 80% leverage that is a loan of about $87,200, so confirm in underwriting that a loan that size fits the program before you write an offer. Borger is a high-yield, thin-liquidity, single-industry town, so underwrite the exit, not the yield.
When does conventional beat DSCR on an Amarillo rental?
When your documented income carries the file. A conventional loan is underwritten on you, DSCR on the property, and conventional is often the lowest-cost long-term money when the file fits the box. Texas does not tax rental income at the state level, though the property tax line here runs about 1.92% to 2.11% of value. See the DSCR program page to compare the two structures.

What will an Amarillo rental cost to hold under a conventional loan?
The county line and the roof. On 2025 rates the Potter County side of Amarillo stacks to 2.112080 per $100 and the Randall County side to 1.922830, about $401 a year apart on a $212,025 house, with no homestead exemption. In 2025, paid homeowners wind and hail losses were $3,088 per policy in Potter and $3,270 in Randall, and a 2% deductible on a $212,000 house is about $4,240 per event.

About the local figures on this page

Local rules move. Every tax rate, fee, ordinance and market figure here comes from a primary source and carries the date we read it, and we correct them as the rules change. Where a number is mid-change or we could not verify it, we say so rather than guess. Before you commit a budget, confirm anything that drives it with the city or county, and talk to your attorney or CPA on questions of law or tax.
