Texas leads the entire country in bank repossessions in 2026. In the first half of the year, lenders repossessed 3,322 Texas homes, more than any other state. In August alone, Texas had 1,835 repossessions, nearly triple California’s 589.
In this video I break down the top 5 states for home repossessions and the 7 reasons Texas is number one: the fastest foreclosure process in America, crushing property taxes, exploding insurance premiums, HOA foreclosures, veterans losing support, stagnant wages, and more. Plus what to do if you’re behind on your mortgage.
