Texas SB1975 establishes venue rules for legal actions involving contracts for real property improvements.

Texas SB1975 amends the Civil Practice and Remedies Code to declare void any venue provision in a contract for real property improvements that requires litigation to be brought outside the state. If such a venue provision is void, the action must be brought in the county where the defendant resides, the cause of action accrued, or the property is located. This change applies to contracts entered into after the act's effective date of September 1, 2025.
