What a writ of possession is, and when it happens in Texas.

If a landlord wins an eviction and the tenant still does not leave, the writ of possession is the court order that allows removal. Texas Property Code Sec. 24.0061 sets the guardrails.

The writ may not issue earlier than the 6th day after the judgment. Before any removal, a written warning is posted at least 24 hours in advance. This is a legal process with steps, not a lockout you do yourself.

We coordinate this stage for you, by the book.

EvictFlow is a filing service and authorized agent under Texas Property Code Sec. 24.011, with court appearances under TRCP Rule 510.3. We are not attorneys and do not give legal advice.

Property managers: we handle the court appearance so you do not have to.

In Texas, authorized agents who are not attorneys can represent parties in JP court filings for nonpayment or holdover cases. That is exactly what we do.

You hand us the file. We prepare the notice, file the case, and show up on your behalf. Every step documented and confirmed in writing, so you always know where things stand.

A common myth about the Texas 3 day notice: that you skip weekends and holidays. You do not.

Under the new computation of time rule (Texas Property Code Sec. 24.0042, effective January 1, 2026), you count every day, including Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays. The one exception: if the final day lands on a weekend or holiday, the deadline moves to the next business day.

Small detail, big consequences if you miscount. We handle the notice and the dates for you.

The Texas nonpayment eviction, step by step.

Here is the general path under current law. Treat these as the windows the law sets, not a guaranteed timeline, since every case and court is different.

1. Notice to vacate, at least 3 days unless your lease says otherwise.
2. File the case. The officer makes a diligent effort to serve the tenant by the 5th business day after filing.
3. Trial, set between the 10th and 21st day after filing.
4. If you win, the writ of possession may issue no earlier than the 6th day after judgment.
5. A 24 hour notice is posted before any removal.

We handle the filing and appear in court for you, and we track each of these dates.

SB 1333 and squatters in Texas: When the sheriff can act without a court order.

SB 1333 took effect September 1, 2025. It created a faster path for true squatters, people who never had a lease. The owner or an authorized agent files a sworn complaint with the county sheriff or constable, and they can remove the occupant without a court eviction.

Important limits: it only applies to people with no prior lease, and it does not cover immediate family members. Anyone who was a tenant goes through the normal eviction process instead.

If you are not sure which one you have, ask before you act.

What SB 38 changed for Texas landlords in 2026.

SB 38 took effect January 1, 2026, and it standardized the Texas eviction timeline. Once the petition is filed, the court sets trial no earlier than the 10th day and no later than the 21st day, and not before the 4th day after the tenant is served.

For landlords, that means a clearer, more predictable schedule than before. It also means the paperwork and deadlines have to be right.

We file the case and track every date for you.

Holdover tenant vs squatter in Texas: they are not the same thing.

A holdover tenant had a lease or a tenant relationship and stayed past the end. That goes through the normal eviction process in Justice of the Peace court (Texas Property Code Chapter 24).

A true squatter never had a lease. Under SB 1333 (Chapter 24B), the owner or an agent can file a sworn complaint with the county sheriff or constable to remove them, and that path is not a court filing. Immediate family members are not covered by it.

Knowing which situation you have decides which process you use. We handle the holdover and nonpayment side as your authorized agent.

What a 3-day notice to vacate actually requires in Texas.

Before you can file an eviction, Texas Property Code Sec. 24.005 requires a written notice to vacate. A few things landlords often get wrong:

The default is at least 3 days, though your written lease can shorten or lengthen it. If the only issue is nonpayment and the tenant was not previously late, the law calls for a notice to pay rent or vacate, not just a notice to leave. How you deliver the notice matters, and so does keeping proof.

Get the notice right and the case moves. Get it wrong and the case can get dismissed.

We prepare and serve the notice for you, documented at every step.
