If you're behind on your mortgage in Texas, you're not alone — and you're not out of options. Texas has one of the fastest foreclosure timelines in the country: a lender can complete a non-judicial foreclosure in as few as 41 days after formal notice. That means every week counts.

Dream Forge Home Buyers works with Texas homeowners facing foreclosure every month. If we can sign a contract and open title in time, we can often close before your sale date — pay off the lender, cover any tax liens, and put the remaining equity in your hands. No judgment. No credit check on you. No embarrassing questions. Just a plan.

Why Texas?

Foreclosure sales in Texas happen the first Tuesday of each month at the county courthouse (in Dallas County, the George Allen Courts Building; in Tarrant County, the Tarrant County Plaza Building; similar setups across the state). The key window is BEFORE the sale date — once the trustee's sale happens, the property is gone and any remaining equity typically is too.

FREQUENTLY ASKED

Texas Seller Questions, Answered

Is a cash sale really faster than a loan modification or short sale?
Almost always yes. Loan modifications can take 3-6 months and are often denied at the end. Short sales require lender approval and typically take 60-120 days minimum. A cash sale where we bring our own funds can close in 7-21 days — often in time to stop a sale posted 30 days out.
Will selling stop the foreclosure?
Selling BEFORE the trustee's sale date will pay off the lender and end the foreclosure. Selling AFTER the sale date is generally not possible — the property has already transferred to the winning bidder. This is why timing is everything.
Do I need to catch up on payments to sell?
No. When we close, the title company pays off the full loan balance (including missed payments, late fees, foreclosure attorney fees, and any accrued interest) directly out of the sale proceeds. You don't need to bring anything to closing.
Will this destroy my credit?
Selling before the sale date is dramatically better for your credit than a completed foreclosure. A foreclosure typically drops a credit score by 100-160 points and stays on the report for 7 years. Selling before the sale — even if you were 90 or 120 days behind — puts you in a stronger position to rebuild.
What if I owe more than the house is worth?
That's a short-sale scenario. We can sometimes still make it work by negotiating with the lender for a discounted payoff, but it takes longer. Call us and we'll be honest about whether it's feasible for your situation.
Are you attorneys?
No, we're real estate investors — not attorneys. For legal advice about foreclosure defense, bankruptcy protection, or your specific rights, please consult a licensed Texas attorney. Many offer free consultations. We can recommend attorneys we've worked with if that would help.
How private is this?
Very. Unlike a public MLS listing, our purchase is a private transaction between you and us. Nobody drives by with a for-sale sign. No neighbors see showings. The public record shows a sale after closing, but there's no marketing or open-house phase.
