It is often misleading to quote a statute with out mentioning the relevant case law.  

Can someone guide me in a direction to learn more about these specific strategies and/or the particular Texas statute that prevents these types of transactions.

Most of your protection from due-on-sale clause comes from a federal statute known as the Garn-St.

Contract Business Trusts can be created for any purpose and is contract based not statute based. 

@Andrew ClarkAndrew, it will really depend on the tenancy law in North Carolina - I suggest you read the statute and see an attorney who practices real estate law.Here roomers and boarders are covered by the Residential Tenancies Act and if there is no signed lease, there is a default lease imposed by the Act.

Read the GA statutes as well.What is the ratio of tax liens being paid off by the homeowner vs. being able to redeem the property?  

Wisconsin Statute 704.23 simply states that I can "proceed in any manner permitted by law to remove the tenant and recover damages."

I think it's much easier to charge a flat amount that is approximately the amount utilities would be, less bookkeeping and less risk of doing it wrong.https://www.revisor.mn.gov/statutes/cite/504B.2152019 Minnesota Statutes PROPERTY AND PROPERTY INTERESTS Chapter 504B Section 504B.215504B.211504B.2212019 Minnesota StatutesAuthenticate PDFResourcesSearch Minnesota StatutesAbout Minnesota Statutes2019 Statutes New, Amended or Repealed2019 Table of Chapters2019 Statutes Topics (Index)Chapter 504BTable of SectionsFull Chapter TextVersion ListSection 504B.215Version ListTopicsCooperative power associationsFurnace oilGas companiesGasesLandlords and tenantsMunicipally owned utilitiesPower companiesPublic utilitiesResidential rental propertyUtilitiesWater companiesRecent History2010 Subd. 2a Amended 2010 c 315 s 72010 Subd. 3 Amended 2010 c 210 s 12008 Subd. 2 Amended 2008 c 313 s 12008 Subd. 3 Amended 2008 c 313 s 22006 Subd. 2b New 2006 c 183 s 12000 Subd. 2 Amended 2000 c 268 s 12000 Subd. 2a New 2000 c 268 s 21999 504B.215 New 1999 c 199 art 1 s 24504B.215 BILLING; LOSS OF SERVICES.Subdivision 1.Definitions.For the purposes of this section, "single-metered residential building" means a multiunit rental building with one or more separate residential living units where the utility service measured through a single meter provides service to an individual unit and to all or parts of common areas or other units.Subd. 2.Single-meter utility service payments.Except as provided in subdivision 3, the landlord of a single-metered residential building shall be the bill payer responsible, and shall be the customer of record contracting with the utility for utility services.

Once the statute of limitations has been reached then if you are still feeling scorned you can report it on their taxes as a final parting gift.  

And even though it goes against state statutes, some TN courts actually give prior owners 3 years to file suit to redeem the property.
