Relating to the cancellation of certain consumer transactions.
SB 1007 amends Texas law to clarify that specific consumer transaction protections under Chapter 601 of the Business & Commerce Code do not apply to certain transactions. It directly affects consumers and businesses by exempting transactions like farm equipment purchases, insurance sales regulated by the Texas Department of Insurance, real estate deals with licensed professionals, and service contracts with written cancellation rights. Key provisions list six specific exceptions where standard cancellation rules (e.g., cooling-off periods) won’t apply. The bill takes effect September 1, 2025, impacting only transactions occurring on or after that date.
