Before choosing the property
- Confirm city boundary, county, school district, taxing entities, zoning, and available public services for the exact address.
- Review HOA, condominium, PID, or other recorded obligations and move procedures.
- Confirm insurance availability, flood information, permits, title, survey, and inspections appropriate to the property.
- Write down every assumption that still needs a responsible source.
After the contract or lease is secure
Use Frisco’s New Service and Utility Billing pages for the current written process to connect, transfer, or disconnect City-billed water, sewer, sanitation, and recycling services. Confirm that the City process applies to the exact service address.
Use the City resident guide and provider tools to confirm electricity delivery, retail electric choice where applicable, gas, internet, and any association-controlled services. Schedule insurance before the date required by the contract or lender.
Complete government address and registration tasks
Use USPS, TxDMV, Texas DPS, VoteTexas, the Texas Comptroller, and the applicable county appraisal district. Forms, eligibility rules, office procedures, and deadlines can change; the current agency page controls.
Because Frisco spans Collin and Denton counties, determine the property’s county before choosing the tax office or homestead-exemption path.
First days and weeks in the home
- Confirm collection days, cart status, and current resident service rules.
- Locate shutoffs and test safety devices.
- Record filters, service dates, warranties, permits, and contractor contacts.
- Update address records and emergency contacts.
- Keep closing, inspection, warranty, utility, and association documents in one move file.
