Buying direct to Owner in Texas

[Sal Flores]

Hello BP's

What is the process to buy a property direct from owner in TX? 

I have purchased several properties using RE agent, but now I am looking to buy direct from owner, should I use the Texas regular contract?
"ONE TO FOUR FAMILY RESIDENTIAL CONTRACT (RESALE)" - Regular form
And then call the Title company and inform the intent of purchase?

Thanks for your support and guidance!!

Yes, you are on the right path.  Finding the property and negotiating a price that works for both you and the owner is the difficult part.  For the contract, just like you say, I'd use the TREC contract, then open escrow with a title company.
