HB 2454, the Texas Home Ownership Protection and Enforcement Act, addresses unauthorized entry, occupancy, sale, or lease of residential real property. It creates criminal offenses related to fraudulent documents used to convey real property interests and provides a process for property owners to request immediate removal of unauthorized occupants via a sheriff. The law also authorizes fees for sheriff involvement in the removal process and defines procedures for verifying and enforcing property ownership rights.
