	AN ACT
	relating to the collection of certain foreclosure data by the Texas

	BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS:
	SECTION 1. Chapter 51, Property Code, is amended by adding
	Section 51.0022 to read as follows:
	Sec. 51.0022. FORECLOSURE DATA COLLECTION. (a) In this
	section, "department" means the Texas Department of Housing and
	Community Affairs.
	(b) A person filing a notice of sale of residential property
	under Section 51.002(b) must submit to the county clerk a completed
	form that provides the zip code for the property.
	(c) On completion of a sale of real property, the trustee or
	sheriff shall submit to the county clerk a completed form that
	contains information on whether the property is residential and the
	zip code of the property.
	(d) Not later than the 30th day after the date of receipt of
	a form under this section, the county clerk shall transmit the form
	to the department.
	(e) The board of the department shall prescribe the forms
	required under this section. The forms may only request
	information on whether the property is residential and the zip code
	of the property.
	(f) The department shall report the information received
	under this section quarterly to the legislature in a format
	established by the board of the department by rule.
	SECTION 2. (a) The board of the Texas Department of
