Re:A $330,000 home for $16? Texas adverse possession law on Sunday July 17, 2011 @12:54AM (#2772581)
Right of redemption laws allow the original owner of a foreclosed house to seek redemption on the property if they are able to come up with the money they need in a specified amount of time. The redemption is transferable and in essence is just as powerful as having the deed of the property itself.

I've lived in the two heat extremes in Texas. Dry Dallas and humid Houston. A/C is definitely important but I've always found myself needing to use it less in Dallas. I can open the window in the evening and let the breeze blow into my room and close it before I leave to class in the morning. In Houston A/C is necessary even into the night as the heat in water vapor lingers around.
