What is a distress score?

The Texas Signals distress score (0-99) ranks each property by how many overlapping distress signals it has. A property that is both tax delinquent and in pre-foreclosure scores far higher than one with a single signal, because stacked distress predicts a motivated seller.

How the Fort Bend County distress score works

Every property in the Fort Bend County dataset gets a distress score from 0 to 99. The score is built on signal overlap: a property that appears in one dataset is interesting, but a property that is tax delinquent and has a Notice of Default filed and carries open code violations is a fundamentally different opportunity — the owner is under pressure from multiple directions at once.

Pre-foreclosure filing — the strongest single signal; the clock is running toward auction.
Tax delinquency — unpaid taxes accrue penalties fast in Texas and can end in a tax sale.
Code violations — deferred maintenance and fines signal an owner losing control of the asset.
Stacked signals bonus — three or more overlapping signals pushes the score toward the top of the range.

Investors sort the Fort Bend County list by score, work the highest-scored properties first, and reach owners before the property ever hits the MLS or the courthouse steps. You can try it free on the distress score lookup.
