Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Texas
If I am listed on a warranty deed, and the property sells, am I required to sign the documents at closing or can the sale of the property be completed without my signature?

I assume that "listed" means that you're a grantee under the previous deed.
Yes, you would have to sign a deed that conveys YOUR interest in the property. Your signature is not needed if the conveyance is for somebody else's interest in the property.
