My team is venturing in to Texas. I need to know as much as possible about lending in Texas. Where can I go to find the rules and regulations. I have to have a detailed report to my boss by Friday. Any help would be appreciated.

If you want to lend in TX you will need to be licensed whether you are a broker or a bank. Each indivual loan officer must be licensed under a specific broker. Getting licensed is easy if you have 3 or more years experience that you can verify. If you don't have the experience or some college under you, then you will have to take some classes, similar to realestate courses, to get licensed. Texas does do cash out loans but only up to 80%LTV on owner occupied properties. Investment properties can get cash out up to 100%. There are different rules for Online companies that lend in TX, I don't know what those are. This website will tell you everything you need to know: http://www.tsld.state.tx.us/
