In this episode you will learn: - Texas homestead protection is automatic for a primary residence and does not require a formal filing to be established. - An urban homestead is limited to a maximum of 10 acres of land, which can be on one or more contiguous lots. - A rural homestead is capped at 200 acres for a family and 100 acres for a single adult. - Homesteads are protected from forced sale by general creditors, like credit card companies or for personal loans. - Protection is not absolute; a homestead can be foreclosed on for specific debts, including purchase money mortgages, property taxes, and valid mechanic's liens.
