Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Texas
Renter's Rights
Given the state of most home equity loans.. as a renter or person leasing a home, what am I entitled to know about the owner's risk relative to that property? Can I find out if the home is still on a mortgage or if it has a lien against it or is listed as collateral for another loan?

All liens are public records. You can check with the county clerk's office in the county where the property is located.
