Default Fig tree question

Andy asks:

A week ago I planted a fig tree from Walmart in full sun about 6
feet
out from my house. It has started to leaf out and appears to be doing
well.

Is there going to be a problem with this as it grows ?

I just want a nice bush about 5 or 6 feet high that has figs.

Can I keep it trimmed to this height and accomplish this ?

Will this keep me from having any foundation problems with
the roots, or should I dig the thing up and plant it farther away ?

Thanks for your advice,

Andy in Eureka, Texas
