Must be posted at least 21 days before the trustee sale, which is held on the first Tuesday of the month.
The lender may appoint a substitute trustee to conduct the sale if the default is not resolved.
The most common mistake in Texas is missing the cure or reinstatement deadline. Contact us early to organize your documents before the sale date.
