Sherman County, TX foreclosures & upcoming trustee sales

How foreclosure sales work in Sherman County

Sherman County follows the statewide calendar for trustee sales: auctions under a deed of trust are held on the first Tuesday of each month, between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., at the spot the Commissioners Court has designated at or near the courthouse in Stratford. Bidding is public and usually cash or certified funds.

Where the Sherman County sale is held: the Commissioners Court designates the sale area at the courthouse in Stratford and records that designation in the county real property records; each notice of sale also states the county and the earliest time the sale will begin. Check the notice and the County Clerk before you go.

At least 21 days before a sale the notice of trustee sale must be posted at the courthouse and filed with the Sherman County Clerk, which makes the clerk the official source. The clerk publishes posted notices online here: Sherman County foreclosure notices. Property-tax sales in Sherman County are a separate process run by the sheriff or a constable after a court judgment.

A posted notice is not a guarantee of an auction. Loans get reinstated, sales are postponed, and notices are re-filed for a later month; whatever sells is sold as is, without warranties.

Due-diligence tip: compare the appraisal district record with the notice, run a title search in the Sherman County deed records, and call the trustee or substitute trustee named in the notice to confirm the sale has not been postponed.

This is general information, not legal, financial or investment advice. Talk to a Texas real-estate attorney before you bid.
