FAQ
To contest a judicial foreclosure, you have to file a written answer to the complaint (the lawsuit). You'll need to present your defenses and explain the reasons why the lender shouldn't be able to foreclose. You might need to defend yourself against a motion for summary judgment and at trial.
During the 5 week notice period, the homeowner can stop the foreclosure by making-up all missed payments (including late fees and attorney costs) or working with an attorney to stop the foreclosure process. The only time it is too late to stop a foreclosure is when the property is sold at auction to a new party.
Verify the Lien: Ensure the lien is valid and check for any errors that could invalidate it. Satisfy the Judgment: Paying the debt in full is the most straightforward way to remove the lien. Obtain a satisfaction of judgment from the creditor and file it with the court.
To respond to the Mortgage Foreclosure Summons, you actually must respond to the ``Complaint'' which was attached to the Summons. You file a response called an ``Answer'' that responds - paragraph by paragraph - to the claims about you in the Complaint.
Generally, to file a judgment lien, an abstract of judgment must be issued by the justice court. Some justice courts have a form available on their website to request an abstract of judgment.
Yes, but you'll need to be able to satisfy the lien before closing. You may be able to negotiate a lower payoff, depending on the type of lien.

In Texas, there are three ways in which a lienholder can foreclose on a property: Judicial Foreclosure. A judicial foreclosure requires the lienholder to file a civil lawsuit against the homeowner. Non-Judicial Foreclosure. Expedited Foreclosure. Court Rules.
This is a breakdown of the steps involved in foreclosing on a lien. File a mechanics lien. Filing a mechanics lien is the actual first step in the lien foreclosure process. Send notices. Hire a lawyer. Prepare your case. File your case. Serve the owners. Wait for your day in court. Collect on your judgment.
Most foreclosures are non-judicial types. This means court approval isn't required and speeds up the process. Many Texas foreclosures take 160 days. This is much faster than the national average of 922 days in foreclosure for the second quarter of 2021.
(Be aware that foreclosures eliminate liens, not debts. The second mortgage holder might sue you, or the judgment lien holder might put a lien on other property you own or try to collect the debt you owe by garnishing your wages or levying your bank accounts.)
