This Garland residential property in Dallas County shows a county appraised value of $313,260 against an original recorded mortgage of $227,950, leaving a spread of $85,310 to investigate. It was built in 2007 and has 1,424 sqft, with no previous foreclosure notices listed. The owner has held title since 2026, and the property still needs verification of the title history, current condition, and lien status.

The county splits its $313,260 appraisal into $60,000 of land and $253,260 of improvements, so roughly 19% of the assessed value is the dirt rather than the structure. The structure dates to 2007, making it about 19 years old. The notice was recorded with the Dallas County clerk on October 1, 2026.

Derived from the figures and the notice above, and not restated here. What the research adds is the reconstruction: the deeds behind the ownership, the mortgage chain with its assignments and releases, every lien recorded against the parcel, and the document each one came from.
