WHAT IS SPECIFIC TO TEXAS

Texas facts that touch this loan

  • Foreclosure. Texas is listed as a non-judicial-foreclosure jurisdiction: a power-of-sale clause in the deed of trust or mortgage lets the sale proceed without a court judgment, following the statutory notice steps. [1]
  • Sale day. Non-judicial sales are held on the first Tuesday of the month, with at least 21 days' notice. [2]
  • Coastal insurance. On the seacoast, wind and hail cover often comes through TWIA, the residual market the legislature created for that territory — price it before you size the DSCR. [3]
  • LLC vesting. A foreign entity transacting business in Texas registers with the Secretary of State. [4]
