FAQ
Under Texas law, the statute of limitations for a judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure is four years, starting the day after the cause of action accrues.
In order to qualify for a non-judicial foreclosure, the lienholder must have a deed of trust with a "power of sale" clause, giving them the authority to sell the property. These foreclosures are governed by Section 51.002 of the Texas Property Code as well as the contractual documents.
Redemption period for properties identified as agricultural use or homestead properties is two years. Redemption period for all other properties is six months. The redemption period begins on the date the deed is recorded.
It is important to note that Texas is primarily a non-judicial foreclosure state, meaning most foreclosures occur without court supervision. ³⁷ However, you always have the right to challenge an improper foreclosure in court.
The effect of foreclosure is to cut off and eliminate junior liens, including mechanic's liens, but not tax obligations. Most foreclosures in Texas are non-judicial.
In non-judicial foreclosures, the trustee or a substitute trustee will be the one to conduct the sale. These auctions can sometimes be referred to as a "trustee sale" or "substitute trustee" sale.
In fact, Texas has the quickest average time for a foreclosure of all the states, at 159 days. To put this into perspective, the national average for the length of the foreclosure process is 477 days, well over a year and about three times as long as in Texas.
Mortgage Foreclosure Surplus Recovery in Texas Generally, a borrower will have to submit a claim to the trustee administrator for their surplus funds. The administrator usually sends a notice about the available funds to the borrower sometime after the foreclosure sale asking if the borrower wants to make a claim.
