Delivery of Subdivision Information to Owner
Texas Property Owners' Association Act resale certificate section. Subsection (a) requires delivery within 10 business days of a written request, including a resale certificate prepared not earlier than the 60th day before delivery ((a)(3)). Subsection (b) enumerates the 16 disclosure items the certificate must contain; the tx_hoa_207 profile picks the 10 most material at (b)(1)–(b)(10). Subsection (c) caps fees at $375 to assemble/copy/deliver and $75 to prepare/deliver an update under (f). Chapter 207 imposes no statutory purchaser-cancellation period — buyer termination rights under TREC contracts are option-period clauses, not statute.
