Texas is a non-judicial foreclosure state. Under the deed of trust's power-of-sale clause, the lender can move through foreclosure on a fast, defined timeline without going to court. Once the sale happens on the first Tuesday of the month, the options available to retain your home narrow substantially. Acting before your sale date — and before the notice period runs — gives you the best chance to work out a loss mitigation or loan modification solution.
If you are a homeowner in Wood County facing missed payments, a pending sale, or a recent Notice of Sale, the most important step is to act quickly with an experienced foreclosure specialist.
20-Day Cure Right
Texas law provides a right to cure the default within the applicable time before the trustee's sale.

The lender posts a Notice of Sale at the county courthouse and files it with the county clerk at least 21 days before the sale date.
First-Tuesday Sale

Timeline figures are provided for general education and can vary based on your loan documents, the property, and the specific facts of your situation. They do not guarantee a total length for your foreclosure.
Ordinary mortgage foreclosure in Texas is non-judicial — it proceeds through a power-of-sale clause in the deed of trust rather than through a lawsuit. Here is the general progression under Texas Property Code §51.002 and related provisions.
Foreclosure typically begins with a missed payment or other default on the note secured by the deed of trust on your Wood County property.
Before accelerating, the lender must provide you the opportunity to cure the default within at least 20 days, giving you a window to bring the payments current or negotiate.
At least 21 days before the sale, the trustee files and posts a Notice of Sale, setting the sale for the first Tuesday of the month at the designated Wood County sale location.
On the first Tuesday of the month, the property is offered at public auction at the location designated for foreclosure sales in Wood County.
If the property is sold to the highest bidder, the trustee executes a trustee's deed to transfer ownership to the successful bidder.
If the sale is completed, the homeowner's remaining rights and options depend on the specific loan terms and facts. Acting before the sale preserves the most options.
