Plains State Bank buyer-window signal capture

Five Houston-area owners who bought, or are buying, the property their business occupies, read for the SBA 7(a) book at Plains State Bank. Each card carries the recorded instrument, what the paper on it is today, who is named on the record, and what the record does not say.

01 Close Enough Storage LLC (Old Washington Storage, Waller)High confidence A warranty deed filed 16 July 2026 moved the Waller self-storage facility to Close Enough Storage LLC. A state sales-tax permit at the same address twelve days later shows the buyer is now operating the storage facility. View evidence, opening, contactHide details

Evidence

  • Warranty deed RP-2026-286220, filed 2026-07-16, conveys the 31207 Washington St self-storage facility from OLD WASHINGTON STORAGE LLC to CLOSE ENOUGH STORAGE LLC, legal LYNN LANE PARTIAL REPLAT NO 1, Lot 2, Block 1.
  • The Texas Comptroller issued Close Enough Storage LLC a sales-tax permit at 31207 Washington St effective 2026-07-28 under NAICS 531130, lessors of mini-warehouses and self-storage units, the same code the prior owner held at that address from 2017.
Practical opening

“A warranty deed filed 16 July 2026 moved the Waller self-storage facility to Close Enough Storage LLC. A state sales-tax permit at the same address twelve days later shows the buyer is now operating the storage facility. That suggests the acquisition note is the first thing a bank would replace. We could ask whether the seller note has a maturity worth refinancing.”

Claim boundaryDo not say the owner is seeking finance or that the seller note is maturing. Neither is in any record.

The only human on the state record is a registered agent, because the entity is too new to have filed officers, so the first call needs a name the registry cannot yet give.

02 Regency Inn and Suites, 14621 Highway 59 N, HumbleHigh confidence A contract of sale over the hotel's commercial reserve was recorded in July 2026. State hotel-tax records show a new operator took the property in July 2026 at this address. View evidence, opening, contactHide details

Evidence

  • Instrument RP-2026-266823, recorded 2026-07-02, is typed CONT in the Harris County Clerk code table, defined as Contract, Contract of Sale or Earnest Money Contract, over Reserve A of the Aldine Bender Hospitality Subdivision.
  • Texas Comptroller hotel-occupancy-tax dataset hdzd-884n carries taxpayer 32106368098, REGENCY INN AND SUITES, at address_number 14621, address_text HIGHWAY 59 N, with resp_begin_date 2026-07-01.
Practical opening

“A contract of sale over the hotel's commercial reserve was recorded in July 2026. State hotel-tax records show a new operator took the property in July 2026 at this address. That suggests the purchase money has not yet been placed. We could ask whether the buyer has placed the purchase money yet.”

Claim boundaryDo not say the buyer needs a loan or that the contract is about to close. Neither is in any record.

The only human on the state record is a registered agent, not a stated officer.

03 RDI Mechanical, Inc., Four Seasons Business Park, TomballHigh confidence RDI Mechanical bought a Tomball business-park unit on 22 June 2026 and gave the note back to the developer. The company is a Tomball operator with officers filed under stated titles. View evidence, opening, contactHide details

Evidence

  • Warranty deed RP-2026-246419, filed 2026-06-22, conveys a unit in FOUR SEASONS BUSINESS PARK TOMBALL, Reserve A, from FOUR SEASONS BUSINESS PARK I LLC to RDI MECHANICAL INC, followed the same day by deed of trust RP-2026-246420 back to that same seller.
  • RDI Mechanical, Inc. carries a Texas Comptroller mailing address of 23106 Tomball Pkwy, Tomball, and its officers are filed for report year 2024 with stated titles.
Practical opening

“RDI Mechanical bought a Tomball business-park unit on 22 June 2026 and gave the note back to the developer. The company is a Tomball operator with officers filed under stated titles. That suggests a developer note sitting where a bank note usually goes. We could ask whether the developer note has a maturity date.”

Claim boundaryDo not say the note is short, dear or maturing, and do not say the company wants to refinance. None of that is recorded.

Specialty trades are thin in this bank's book at three of 321 loans, so the fit rests on the collateral and the takeout rather than on precedent.

04 Alanis Food LLC, USDA-inspected food manufacturer, HoustonHigh confidence Alanis Food bought a commercial reserve on 24 August 2026 and gave the note to Dyamond Capital. The lender on this purchase matches no FDIC-insured institution in the United States. View evidence, opening, contactHide details

Evidence

  • Warranty deed RP-2026-342499, filed 2026-08-24, conveys a commercial reserve from Kosmos Investments LLC to Alanis Food LLC, with deed of trust RP-2026-342500 to Dyamond Capital Inc recorded the same day.
  • An exact-name and a wildcard search of the FDIC institution directory both return no insured institution whose name contains Dyamond; a fuzzy search returns only Diamond-spelled banks, none of them this lender.
Practical opening

“Alanis Food bought a commercial reserve on 24 August 2026 and gave the note to Dyamond Capital. The lender on this purchase matches no FDIC-insured institution in the United States. That suggests bank paper has not been placed on this building. We could ask what the Dyamond note costs against a bank rate.”

Claim boundaryDo not say the note is expensive or that the owner wants to refinance. Neither is in any record.

Food manufacturing is not one of the six categories this bank demonstrably funds, so the fit rests on the collateral rather than precedent.

05 Electro-Quip Service, Inc., Kimberlee Lane Estates, east Harris CountyConditional causal link Electro-Quip bought a commercial reserve from Mitsubishi Power Americas on 10 September 2026. The state record names a President and a Vice-President for this company under stated titles. View evidence, opening, contactHide details

Evidence

  • Warranty deed RP-2026-369090, filed 2026-09-10, conveys KIMBERLEE LANE ESTATES Block 1 Reserve A from Mitsubishi Power Americas Inc and an affiliate to Electro-Quip Service Inc.
  • The Texas Comptroller officer array for Electro-Quip Service, Inc. names a President, Director and Treasurer and a separate Vice-President, Secretary and Director for active year 2025.
Practical opening

“Electro-Quip bought a commercial reserve from Mitsubishi Power Americas on 10 September 2026. The state record names a President and a Vice-President for this company under stated titles. That suggests permanent financing has not been arranged yet. We could ask whether the new site is being financed or built out.”

Claim boundaryDo not say the company needs finance or that a build is planned. Neither is recorded anywhere.

Industrial electrical manufacturing is not one of the six categories this bank demonstrably funds, and specialty trades are three of 321 loans.

These signals rank research priority. They do not prove purchase intent. Every date and instrument is from the public record; none of these owners has said it is seeking a loan, refinancing, or talking to a lender.
