For seller agents and listing teams: collect the association contact, request evidence, contract timing and first question so the title team can help route the file early.
HOA resale certificates and subdivision documents are easy to treat as back-office paperwork until the buyer, lender or title team needs them. This checklist helps a seller agent send the right context early without trying to interpret association restrictions or make a title decision.
Name the association, show what has already been requested, and ask one process question. The contract, association records, title commitment, lender instructions and professional review still control the file-specific answer.
These sources were checked on July 31, 2026. They help frame what a seller-agent handoff should include, but they do not replace legal, association, lender, tax, survey, title or underwriting review for a specific transaction.
Chapter 207 is the Texas Legislature source for property owners' association resale-certificate disclosures. For a title handoff, the useful first question is practical: who has the current association contact, request evidence and document packet?
Read the source ->Texas A&M's real estate research center summarizes Section 207.003 as requiring delivery of subdivision information within 10 business days of the request. That makes day-one ordering a coordination issue, not a last-week reminder.
Read the source ->TREC's current One to Four Family Residential Contract is Form 20-19 and the public form page says it is not for condominium, builder new-home, or farm-and-ranch transactions. Do not relabel this subdivision handoff as a condo checklist.
Read the source ->P-53 is the title-insurance referral boundary. This page is a public educational checklist; it is not a rebate, gift, discount, commission or other thing of value for sending a title-insurance referral to WG Title.
Read the source ->A good HOA handoff is not a legal memo. It is a short, sourced note that tells the title team what association document issue may affect timing and where the file stands today.
This public resource is available to anyone on the same terms. It is not conditioned on sending a closing to WG Title and it does not offer a rebate, discount, commission, gift or thing of value for a referral.
Prepared as a courtesy. This document is available to any real estate professional on the same terms and is not conditioned on directing a closing to WG Title.
WG Title provides title and escrow services, not legal advice. WG Law is a separate, independently operated company and any relationship with it is governed by its own engagement.
Read TDI Procedural Rule P-53 ->This uses the existing closing-readiness form. The page URL, referrer, UTM fields and click IDs stay with the lead record, so the title team can see that the question came from this HOA resale-certificate handoff.
Do not paste wire instructions, account numbers, Social Security numbers, identity-document numbers or private association login credentials into this form.
