Texas Market Overview
Texas has the second-largest state economy in the U.S., with major metros including Houston, Dallas-Fort Worth, Austin, and San Antonio each offering distinct economic drivers. The state's lack of income tax and business-friendly environment have attracted massive corporate relocations.
Texas has no state income tax but relies heavily on property taxes, and commercial property tax rates are among the highest in the nation at 2% to 3% of assessed value, making aggressive tax appeals and Chapter 313 value limitations important strategies for CRE investors. The state's non-judicial foreclosure process can be completed in as little as 27 days, providing exceptionally strong lender protections. Texas does not recognize statutory redemption rights after foreclosure sale, which combined with the fast process timeline gives commercial lenders one of the most favorable foreclosure environments in the country.
