Updated November 2026
Which Texas Real Estate Commission forms govern the sale of a Lofts on Post Oak condo once a buyer makes an offer?
In November 2026, a Lofts on Post Oak resale uses the Texas Real Estate Commission's condominium resale contract, and a buyer ending it sends the Commission's notice of buyer's termination.

Which Texas Real Estate Commission contract form does a Lofts on Post Oak resale use?
A buyer's offer on a home here is written on the Texas Real Estate Commission's contract form for condominium resales. The Commission's page for the form says it is used for the resale of a condominium unit. It adds that the form contains unique provisions relating solely to condominium transactions.
The same page sets a limit on the form, quoted below. Each Lofts on Post Oak home carries a share of the common land and elements in its legal description on the county roll. A full-service agent reads that legal description before the form is chosen.
The Commission's list of current forms says real estate license holders are required to use these forms. It warns that mistakes in the use of a form may result in financial loss or a contract which is unenforceable. A full-service agent checks each blank against the facts of the sale before either side signs.
It is not for use where the seller owns fee simple title to the land beneath the unit.
Can a Lofts on Post Oak seller weigh several offers on that contract at once?
Yes. The Commission's page for the condominium resale form says a seller may receive, review and negotiate several offers simultaneously. Each offer can then be read term by term against the others.
Buyers test their offers against the list price, so that price should rest on recent sales of homes near your size. 18 homes sold here in the twelve months to November 2026, and the median one went under contract in 69 days.
There were 11.3 months of inventory as of November 2026, and several homes of a similar size may be for sale at once. A full-service agent sets out each offer's terms for you and negotiates the ones the form leaves open.
How does a buyer end a Lofts on Post Oak resale contract in writing?
The Commission publishes a separate form for this, the Notice of Buyer's Termination of Contract. Its page says the form is used when a buyer wants to notify a seller that the buyer is terminating an existing contract.
Paragraph 6E(12) of the contract bears on when a buyer may have that right. A Commission article on the forms effective January 3, 2025 says the paragraph now adds specific examples of the types of notices that should be listed in it.
The article says the change also adds a caution. A seller's failure to provide required notices may provide the buyer with certain remedies, like the ability to terminate the contract.
For a seller, that makes the list of notices owed worth settling before the home is listed. A full-service agent sets the timing for each notice and confirms the buyer has it in writing.
Which Texas law governs the condominium behind a Lofts on Post Oak contract?
The Texas State Law Library's guide says condominium associations are governed by the Texas Uniform Condominium Act, Chapter 82 of the Texas Property Code. It says the chapter governs the creation, alteration and termination of condominiums, condominium management and purchase protections.
The same guide says associations established before 1994 may be governed by the older Texas Condominium Act, Chapter 81. The county records every home at Lofts on Post Oak as built in 2003. The declaration that created the condominium is recorded under file number 192196.
Section 82.157 has a seller other than the declarant give the buyer the declaration, the bylaws, the association rules and a resale certificate before a contract is signed. A Commission article notes that its updated Condominium Resale Certificate (TREC No. 32-5) is a voluntary-use form.
A full-service agent sets the order of those documents against the contract dates, so the buyer reads the package before signing.
Condominium associations are governed by the Texas Uniform Condominium Act (Chapter 82 of the Texas Property Code).
Questions & answers
Lofts on Post Oak questions, answered
Do I have to give my Lofts on Post Oak buyer a mold remediation certificate?
Yes, if one was issued during the five years preceding the sale. A Texas Real Estate Commission article on the forms effective January 3, 2025 says Texas law requires a seller to provide a buyer a copy of any such certificate issued in that window. The article says new Paragraph 6E(11) adds information on this requirement to the contract forms, except the Unimproved Property Contract.
The five years count back from the sale, so the date on any certificate decides whether the requirement reaches it. Find any certificate for your home before it is listed, and note its date. A full-service agent checks that date against the five-year window and sets when the copy reaches the buyer on the contract's timeline.
Can the Texas Real Estate Commission answer questions about my own Lofts on Post Oak contract?
Not about the terms of your own deal. The Commission's list of current contract forms says TREC cannot provide legal advice to the public on private contractual matters. The Commission publishes the forms. Questions about how a term applies to your sale go to the agent writing the contract, and to a Texas attorney where the answer turns on the law.
Bring the contract, any addenda and the association package to that conversation. A full-service agent reads each blank against the facts of the sale and flags the points an attorney should review. At Lofts on Post Oak, those facts include the declaration and the association rules, which reach the buyer before a contract is signed.
When should I order the resale certificate for my Lofts on Post Oak sale?
Order it in step with your list date, so it is ready when the first offer arrives. The resale certificate is the association's own statement about the home being sold: the assessment, anything the seller still owes, the budget, the reserves and every fee connected with the sale. A buyer reads those figures beside the price, so a request made early keeps the offers from waiting on it.
The association's management certificate, signed on 27 February 2026, lists $75 to update a certificate and $100 for a rush order. It says its fees change from time to time, and the managing agent, Rise Association Management Group, has the current figures. A request timed to the list date keeps the paperwork in step with the offers as they come in.
Can I get a valuation of my Lofts on Post Oak home before I weigh offers?
Yes. You can request a valuation of your home at no charge. It starts with your unit's living area on the county roll and the recent sales of homes closest to it. It then adjusts for floor, view, condition and whether the home is in the tower or the mid-rise. Each offer can then be set beside that number.
Homes sold for about 96.4 percent of list price as of November 2026, a complex-wide figure that can follow one or more reductions. The county's appraised value is a tax figure, so treat it as one input. For 2025 the certified values here ran from $198,275 to $602,171, and a sale price can sit some distance from them.
What should I ask an agent about the contract before I list my Lofts on Post Oak home?
Ask which Texas Real Estate Commission form the sale will be written on, and how the agent confirms it fits a condominium unit. Ask how several offers will be set out for you, term by term. Ask when the resale certificate will be requested, and which notices you owe a buyer, since a missed notice may give a buyer certain remedies.
