Yes, in the state of Texas, a creditor can come right to your house if you owe debts. However, in other states, the creditor must first get court papers to just show up at your residence.

Can a lien be placed against a house in Texas for a car that was purchased in California and then repossessed in Texas?

Yes. The creditor can sue the debtor in Texas and use a judgment award to place a lien against property belonging to the debtor. I'm not a lawyer and would encourage you to call one. But I believe the previous answer is incomplete. If you reside in Texas, and you LIVE in the home in question, a judgment award cannot really be used against that property. If they put a lien on the house, all you need to do is claim "homestead exemption" and tell the creditor to remove the lien. They are required to do that. If they refuse, you can sue them for damages. The creditor can place a lien on OTHER property that you own (i.e. not your primary residence). Or any property that you inherit.

Can a loan company file a judgment in Texas?

Any creditor who is owed money and for whom the contract has not been honored by the borrower can file for a judgment in Texas and every other state of the US. Whether or not the creditor will receive that judgment is a matter up to the courts, however the judgment typically goes in favor of the creditor.


Can a person's wages or bank account be garnished for credit card debt in Texas?

The creditor would need to obtain a lawsuit judgment from the Texas court before wage garnishment would be allowed. Texas only allows garnishment of wages when there are no other means for a judgment creditor to collect a debt owed. If a judgment has already been entered against the debtor in a different state, the judgment creditor can place a "foreign" judgment lien against property owned by the debtor.
