Pick Texas when you sign up and Statehouse sets your deal board, deadlines and disclosures to how Texas deals customarily run. Change anything your contract says differently.
Every deadline on a Texas contract
- Earnest money due3 business days after signing

- Title objection deadlineDay 20
- Appraisal contingencyDay 21

Day counts start the day the contract is signed. A calendar-day deadline that lands on a weekend or federal holiday moves to the next business day. The Closing Disclosure rule is federal and counts back from closing in every state. Change any number to match your contract.

Dual agency is prohibited in Texas. A broker may act as an Intermediary with written consent from both parties, optionally appointing separate associates to each side.
The buyer typically purchases an unrestricted right to terminate for an option fee, usually 5-10 days, during which inspections happen.
TREC promulgates the contract forms, so agents fill them in rather than drafting them. Property taxes are high and are a routine part of the affordability conversation.
Real estate licensees in Texas are licensed by the Texas Real Estate Commission. Statehouse is not affiliated with it.
State guidance is provided as a starting point based on customary practice. It is not legal advice. Confirm current requirements with your broker or attorney, and edit anything that differs in your market.
