Questions

Is chapter 1 the full guide?

No. It is the statute chapter. The paid PDF continues with finding a notice, research, liens, payment, auction day, and the checklist.

Does the free PDF tell me to bid?

No. It explains Property Code §51.002 and the related payment and as-is rules. It is not legal advice.
