Texas foreclosure moves quickly once a notice is posted and mailed. In Fayette County — including La Grange, Schulenburg, and the surrounding communities — the timeline from notice to auction can be short, so understanding each stage early gives you more options.
In Texas, the lender's trustee typically mails and files a notice of default before accelerating the loan and proceeding toward a trustee sale.
Where applicable, the deed of trust provides a cure period — often 20 days — during which you may reinstate the loan by paying the amount past due plus permitted costs.
Requesting a loss mitigation review — loan modification, repayment plan, or forbearance — early can pause momentum and open a path to keeping or exiting the property.

Texas is predominantly a non-judicial foreclosure state. Foreclosure generally proceeds under a deed of trust with a substitute trustee, rather than through a court judgment.
After default, the trustee mails and posts the required pre-foreclosure notices under the deed of trust and Texas Property Code.
Where applicable, a 20-day cure period allows reinstatement by paying the past-due amount plus permitted costs.
A Notice of Sale is posted and filed at least 21 days before the sale date, identifying the date, time, and location of the trustee sale.
The lender's substitute trustee conducts the process and is responsible for the notices and the sale itself.
Texas trustee sales are generally held on the first Tuesday of the month at the county courthouse, between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m.
Texas does not provide a general post-sale redemption for most residential deeds of trust, so timely action before the sale is critical.
