County value is the appraisal district's figure, not a market estimate, and the original loan is what was borrowed when the deed of trust was signed — not the current payoff. The spread compares the two; it is not equity. Who owns the property, and every instrument recorded against it, is in the $1 research.

How Dallas County foreclosure sales work

A Texas foreclosure under a deed of trust needs no court. The lender appoints a substitute trustee, files a notice of sale with the county clerk at least 21 days before the sale, and the trustee sells the property at public auction to the highest bidder for cash. Title passes by trustee's deed; junior liens are wiped, senior liens and taxes carry over.

The notice states the original principal of the loan, never the current payoff. The gap between those two numbers is where most bad assumptions live.

Auction schedule

Sales are held on the first Tuesday of every month between 10 AM and 4 PM at the north side of the George Allen Courts Building, 600 Commerce Street, Dallas, or wherever the Commissioners Court has most recently designated. Each sale must begin within three hours of the time stated in its notice.

Where notices are filed

Notices are filed with the Dallas County Clerk, who indexes notices in the Foreclosures department of the county's public records search (dallas.tx.publicsearch.us). Notices are posted at the courthouse and filed with the clerk at least 21 days before the sale; PlotCipher reads the clerk's index every morning at 4 AM and joins each notice to its DCAD parcel.

What a notice does not tell you
Whether the debt is still owed
The notice states the original principal, not a current payoff. No public record establishes a balance.
What else is recorded against it
Junior liens, tax liens, HOA claims and prior mortgages sit in separate indexes. Some survive the sale.
Who is actually foreclosing
The notice names a trustee and a beneficiary. The assignment chain that got there is a separate set of documents.
Whether the sale will happen
Postponement and withdrawal are not recorded events. The only certainty is the posting on the morning of the sale.

Frequently asked

Dallas County foreclosures, answered.

When are foreclosure auctions held in Dallas County?
Texas trustee sales happen on the first Tuesday of every month, between 10 AM and 4 PM, and each sale must begin within three hours of the time stated in its notice. Dallas County sales are held at the north side of the George Allen Courts Building, 600 Commerce Street, Dallas, or wherever the Commissioners Court has most recently designated.
Where are foreclosure notices filed?
A notice of substitute trustee sale is filed with the Dallas County Clerk, who indexes notices in the Foreclosures department of the county's public records search (dallas.tx.publicsearch.us) at least 21 days before the sale date. That filing is the first public record of a foreclosure, and it is what PlotCipher watches.
Is the loan amount on the notice what the owner owes?
No. The notice states the original principal of the deed of trust being foreclosed. After years of payments, or arrears and fees, the current payoff can be far from that figure. PlotCipher shows the original principal and says plainly that the payoff is unknown.
Does every posted sale go through?
No. Sales are postponed, reinstated and withdrawn constantly, and the notice is never updated to say so. PlotCipher rechecks the county index every morning and marks notices that disappear from it.
