  • Bonus: Texas Foreclosure Numbers for December 2025
    Nov 29 2025

    Good morning, afternoon, and good evening, Texas investors! Scott Carson here, and it's that time again – time for your December Texas Foreclosure Update! Grab your boots and your notebooks, because foreclosures are officially heating up like a Texas summer day in July. Roddy List data just dropped, and let me tell you, Q3 saw a massive surge in REOs hitting the market, with Houston leading the charge as one of the nation's most distressed cities. If you're ready to scoop up some serious Lone Star gold, tune in as we break down the county-by-county numbers for the upcoming December 2nd Super Tuesday auctions!


    Grab Your County List HERE! Use the code WECLOSENOTES to save $20 on your order!


    In this episode, you'll learn:

    • 4,000 Foreclosures on the Block (Residential & Commercial): December 2nd is the day, with a whopping 4,000 properties statewide heading to auction. From residential gems to commercial opportunities, the sheer volume means there’s something for every savvy investor willing to dig!
    • Houston Leads the Charge (Again!): Harris County clocks in with a jaw-dropping 655 properties, solidifying Houston's reputation as a hotspot for distressed assets. Dallas County (308) and Tarrant County (251) aren't far behind, proving the major metros are where the action is.
    • San Antonio Sees a Surge: Keep your eyes peeled on Bexar County, which is sporting a hefty 405 foreclosures. Even Austin's Travis County (131) and North-Austin's Williamson County (53) are showing significant activity, meaning even the hotter markets are feeling the squeeze.
    • Commercial Opportunities Abound: Beyond residential, Texas boasts 526 commercial properties hitting the auction block. North Texas (152), Central Texas (126), and East Texas (112) lead the regions, offering diverse chances for commercial real estate pros.
    • REO Wave Incoming: Your Next Big Opportunity: Less property selling at auction means more bank-owned REOs (over 1,200 in Q3 alone!). We use these foreclosure lists to find distressed borrowers and investors, making direct contact with banks and attorneys. December's numbers are your roadmap to securing deals before the New Year's rush!


    The bottom line? December isn't just for holiday cheer; it's a goldmine for Texas real estate investors. These numbers aren't just statistics; they're opportunities screaming your name. Whether you're targeting local markets or looking to leverage these lists for nationwide distressed debt, this update is your starting gun. If you're ready to stop listening and start doing, hit me up at talkwithscottcarson.com. As always, check out weclosednotes.tv for more insights. Go out, take some action, and let's turn these foreclosures into your next big win! Don't let these deals pass you by!
