Texas: who governs the ground

The registry The HOA Book built for Colorado, now statewide in Texas: every association that filed its HOA management certificate, every MUD and water district in TCEQ's records — with the 2025 tax rate and bond debt on the page. Every record links its state source.

4,895,951 addresses across 12 counties · the HOA and the MUD, with rates and debt · answers in your browser, the address never reaches us · how it works

The MUD map

Every dot is a real water district at its true position, colored by its 2025 tax rate — 2,212 of them from TCEQ's boundary records. The dense cluster is Houston: MUD country. Open the live map and click any boundary for the district, its rate, and its debt.

Texas HOA directory

Every association that has filed its management certificate under Texas Property Code §207 (SB 1588) — name, city, county, and the recorded certificate itself, the document that names the manager and where resale certificates come from.

MUDs & water districts

TCEQ's registry of every water district, active and inactive, status shown — type, county, and the officer of record with a phone number. A MUD is a government that taxes the property inside it; if your Texas tax bill has a line you can't explain, it's probably here — and the money is on the page: the district's 2025 tax rate with its debt-service share, and its bond debt outstanding with up to 20 years of history, from the Comptroller's and Bond Review Board's own files.

Management companies

Who manages Texas HOAs — machine-read from the recorded certificates the state publishes only as scans. Portfolios, company by company, every claim one click from its certificate.

Owner rights

What a Texas HOA can and can't do — payment plans, foreclosure limits, records, the resale-certificate fee cap — each with its Property Code section cited.

Research · Dataset · Compare

The first report — what Texas water districts owe — plus two documented CSVs free to cite, and a side-by-side compare for the two-houses moment. Every district and association page also takes a watch: one plain email when its state record changes, nothing else.

What's here now, and what's coming

Registries, rates, debt, address lookup, map, rights, the machine-read management-company layer, research, dataset, compare, and change alerts — built in the open from the state's own files. Still to come: more lookup counties, added the same way everything else was — one verified dataset at a time. See the Colorado registry for the pattern.
