If you've spent much time in Texas, you're probably aware that you live in a state with very low tolerance for
anyone coloring outside of the lines. The demand for accountability is apparent in all areas of our civil
and criminal code. On one extreme Texas is world famous for executing more of its worst criminals faster
than any other state in the country. On the other, the catchy anti-littering campaign slogan "Don't Mess
with Texas" has become a jingle that we are all familiar with. Our foreclosure laws are just as conservative
as the rest of them. As a matter of fact,
Texas has some of the most aggressive foreclosure laws in the nation. Compared to many states, it is extremely easy to foreclose on a property in Texas and the process moves very quickly. As an example, in Pennsylvania, the foreclosure process takes approximately 10 months, not including the pre-foreclosure phase. In Texas, the process takes only 21 days!
