How can I sell my Texas house while living in Germany?
Hi Folks,
I am new to this awesome community.
I own a house in Texas that I need to sell. Currently, I live in Germany and have no plans on returning to the US in the near future. I have a full-time job and family obligations. How can I sell this house while living abroad?
There is a caveat, the house is owned by my corporation of which I am the sole executive. There are no other members or partners.
Any and all guidance would be appreciated!
Thank you.

Thank you for the mention @Michael K Gallagher!
@Wentworth Brown you are not tied to the physical location to sell a property in Texas. However, you may want to plan in advance with your Title Office and Realtor. For out of country owners, clarify with Title and the Buyer's Lender if they accept Remote Online Notary. If they do not accept a RON you can make an appointment at the Consulate and sign with a notary there. Lastly you could grant power of attorney for someone to sign in your stead but consult an attorney before pursuing that route as this is not legal advice and I am not an attorney.
The owning corporation caveat is much simpler, the Title company will need to see your LLC/Corporation documents, specifically the Articles of Organization, to verify you have the authority to act on behalf of the entity that owns the property.
