Special Government Home Renovation Loan Program using Tyler TX FHA 203k Mortgage Loans. Many are not aware of a special government loan program that is actually a part of FHA (Federal Housing Administration- a department within HUD).

The 1st Tuesday of the month is here and that translates to tax & trustee sales on the courthouse steps.  There are a total of 7 properties scheduled to be sold in Smith County (in Tyler, TX) for September 2o15.  Some, all or none could be sold.  The most current list can be found here.Interested bidders must do their homework prior to bidding as well as educate themselves on Texas law and homestead rules.  You must have cash on hand because financing is NOT an option.If properties fail to sale at the courthouse steps, they can be added to a "strikeoff" list for later bidding usually as sealed bids.If you have any questions about tax sales or trustee sales, contact Cider Properties at (903) 484-4109 or visit our site to learn more.
