TX caveats

The 180-day vs 2-year window turns on the property's use at the time of sale, which the sale list does not state — treat any homestead-looking residential parcel as potentially 2-year.
Purchaser takes subject to the redemption right; you cannot deliver insurable title until it expires.
The 25% is a flat penalty, not annual interest.

Spread is not profit.It compares the opening bid to the county's assessed value, which is not market value — Texas requires appraisal at 100% of market value as of Jan 1 (Tex. Tax Code § 23.01). Open a parcel to run the full max-bid analysis, which accounts for the assessment ratio, surviving liens, quiet title, and holding costs.
