Market demand: Real Estate in Texas sell about 34% of the time, typically 1 bid. Based on 147 completed sales over the last year.
- This is the asking price set from that appraisal, not a below-market auction bid - a fair price for the home, not a guaranteed bargain.
- The real edge of a government REO is a clean sale: clear, insurable title with any past-due property taxes settled at closing.
- Sold as-is with no seller repairs, so budget an inspection and repairs on top of the price.
The appraisal reflects the home's condition when it was inspected; values change over time. Not an independent valuation or investment advice - always inspect and confirm the numbers before you make an offer.
- This listing: conveys with clear, insurable title. Past-due property taxes are settled at closing by the seller, there is no redemption period, and no former owner can reclaim it.
- County tax sales in Texas: Texas is a hybrid state. The county sells a deed or certificate that the former owner can still undo by paying you back with interest during the redemption window. The former owner then has 2 years to reclaim the property. Title here usually needs a quiet-title action before it is insurable or resellable. None of that applies to this listing.
We do not estimate what a specific property owes. Lien and back-tax amounts live in county records and only a title search returns the real number, so any figure produced without one is a guess you should not bid against. Compare all 51 state tax-sale regimes. State-level rules, not legal advice.
Uninsured - cash or rehab loan only
Condition & financingHUD estimates more than ~$5,000 in repairs. Treat it as a project, not a move-in home.
- Not eligible for standard FHA financing. Buy with cash, a conventional loan, or an FHA 203(k) rehab loan.
- Eligible for HUD's $100-down payment program for owner-occupants.
- FHA insurability is set by HUD; the repair figures are HUD's ~$5,000 rule of thumb, not a per-home guarantee. Always get an inspection.
