Texas process notes

Foreclosure process

Texas is a non-judicial foreclosure state — most mortgages use a deed of trust with a power-of-sale clause, so a lender can foreclose without going through court. Foreclosure auctions are held on the first Tuesday of the month at the county courthouse, and the process can move faster than in judicial states.

Property tax delinquency

Texas sells tax-delinquent properties as redeemable deeds at public auction. The former owner keeps a right of redemption after the sale — two years for homestead, agricultural, and mineral-use properties, 180 days for other property types — during which they can reclaim the property by paying the buyer back plus a statutory penalty.

General information, not legal advice — process details vary by county. Confirm specifics with a local real estate attorney or the county recorder/tax office before acting.
