MEMORANDUM OPINION and ORDER
JOHN McBRYDE, District Judge.
Now before the court are the motion for summary judgment and supplemental motion for summary judgment filed in the above action by defendants, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (“Wells Fargo”), and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”).1 Plaintiff, Pamela Richardson,2 filed a response to defendants’ first motion, to which defendants filed a reply; plaintiff filed nothing in response to the supplemental motion. Having now considered all of the parties’ filings, the entire summary judgment record, including defendants’ original and supplemental appendices and the appendix submitted by plaintiff with her response, as well as applicable legal authorities, the court concludes that the motions should be granted.
I.
Plaintiff’s Claims
Plaintiff initiated this removed action by the filing on April 19, 2011, of her original petition in the District Court of Tarrant County, Texas, 342nd Judicial District, asserting claims and causes of action related to Wells Fargo’s foreclosure of plaintiffs property and Freddie Mac’s attempts to evict her therefrom. On April 11, 2012, plaintiff filed a first amended complaint that was substantially similar to the original state court petition, asserting claims and causes of action for breach of contract and anticipatory breach of contract, breach of common law tort of unreasonable collection efforts, claims under the Texas Consumer Credit Code/Debt Collection Prac[805]*805tices Act (“TDCPA”), Texas Finance Code §§ 392.001-392.404, negligent misrepresentation, and suit to quiet title and trespass to try title. Plaintiff also alleged “malice,” requested an accounting, and sought a declaratory judgment that: plaintiff did not breach the deed of trust; defendants had no standing, or alternatively, waived their right, to foreclose; defendants wrongfully attempted to foreclose on plaintiffs property; Wells Fargo breached the deed of trust and had no standing to foreclose; and, the lien was invalid.
On May 31, 2012, plaintiff filed her second amended complaint (“Complaint”). The Complaint was virtually identical to the first amended complaint, with the addition of causes of action for wrongful foreclosure and wrongful eviction.3
II.
The Summary Judgment Motions
Defendants argued for summary judgment on the following grounds: all of plaintiffs claims are preempted by the National Bank Act; plaintiffs breach of contract and anticipatory breach of contract claims fail because Wells Fargo sent all notices as required, plaintiff failed to perform her obligations under the loan documents, plaintiff cannot state a claim based on any breach by defendants of an alleged duty of good faith, plaintiff cannot establish her claims based on an alleged unilateral contract or pursuant to any alleged waiver of right to foreclose, and her anticipatory breach of contract claim is unsupported by facts or law.
As to plaintiffs wrongful foreclosure and wrongful eviction claims, defendants argued that plaintiff cannot establish the elements of wrongful foreclosure, and her wrongful eviction claim fails because no evidence shows the foreclosure was wrongful.
Defendants also moved for summary judgment on the grounds that: plaintiffs claim of unreasonable collection efforts fails because defendants did not engage in any egregious or unreasonable collection activity; defendants did not engage in conduct prohibited by the TDCPA; plaintiff cannot show that defendants engaged in any activity as would support a claim of malice; plaintiffs negligent misrepresentation claim fails due to the statute of frauds, the existence of a contract between the parties, and the economic loss rule, as well as due to plaintiffs inability to show detrimental reliance on any alleged misrepresentation; plaintiffs suit to quiet title and trespass to try title claims fail because plaintiff cannot establish the strength of her own title in light of the foreclosure, nor can she show that Freddie Mac’s ownership of the property is improper or that the foreclosure was wrongful.
Defendants also argued that plaintiff cannot show that she is entitled to an accounting because it is a remedy, not a cause of action, and her request for declaratory judgment fails as a result of the failure of her other claims.
III.
Undisputed Facts
The following facts are undisputed in the summary judgment record:
[806]*806On or about December 21, 2006, plaintiff and her then-husband, Grayton Koenig (“Koenig”), executed a deed of trust to secure payment of a promissory note in the amount of $240,950.00. The note and deed of trust secured the refinancing of plaintiffs property located in Grapevine, Tarrant County, Texas. Plaintiff was required to make payments of $2,212.04 on the first of each month. However, due to personal circumstances, plaintiff defaulted on her loan payments. By September 15, 2009, plaintiff had not paid her monthly payments for July, August, and September 2009. Consequently, on September 27, 2009, Wells Fargo sent plaintiff a letter notifying her of the default and informing her of the total amount needed to bring the account current. The letter warned plaintiff that unless she brought the account current by October 27, 2009, Wells Fargo would accelerate the note and pursue remedies permitted in the note and deed of trust.
Plaintiff subsequently applied to Wells Fargo for a loan modification. “Subject to Wells Fargo’s initial review of the financial documents Plaintiff submitted,” she was approved for a “temporary, trial modification payment plan” under a program known as the Home Affordable Modification Program (“HAMP Plan”). App. in Supp. of Defs.’ Mot. for Summ. J. and Br. in Supp. (“Defs.’ App.”) at 4. The HAMP Plan contemplated three monthly-trial payments in the amount of $1,868.17, starting on December 1, 2009, and lasting until February 1, 2010. The October 19, 2009 cover letter included with the HAMP Plan explained that
[i]f you qualify under the federal government’s Home Affordable Modification program and comply with the terms of the Trial Period Plan, we will modify your mortgage loan and you can avoid foreclosure.
The monthly trial period payments are based on the income information that you previously provided to us. They are also our estimate of what your payment will be IF we are able to modify your loan under the terms of the program. If your income documentation does not support the income amount that you previously provided in our discussions, two scenarios can occur:
1) Your monthly payment under the Trial Period Plan may change
2) You may not qualify for this loan modification program.
If you do not qualify for a loan modification, we will work with you to explore other options available to help you keep your home or ease your transition to a new home.
Id. at 58. Pertinent provisions of the HAMP Plan included the following:
D. The Lender will hold the payments received during the Trial Period in a non-interest bearing account until they total an amount that is enough to pay my oldest delinquent monthly payment on my loan in full. If there is any remaining money after such payment is applied, such remaining funds will be held by the Lender and not posted to my account until they total an amount that is enough to pay the next oldest delinquent monthly payment in full;
E. When the Lender accepts and posts a payment during the Trial Period it will be without prejudice to, and will not be deemed a waiver of, the acceleration of the loan or foreclosure action and related activities and shall not constitute a cure of my default under the Loan Documents unless such payments are sufficient to completely cure my en[807]*807tire default under the Loan Documents;
G. I understand that the Plan is not a modification of the Loan Documents and that the Loan Documents will not be modified unless and until (i) I meet all of the conditions required for modification, (ii) I receive a fully executed copy of a Modification Agreement, and (in) the Modification Effective Date has passed. I further understand and agree that the Lender will not be obligated or bound to make any modification of the Loan Documents if I fail to meet any one of the requirements under this Plan.
Id. at 63. Plaintiff submitted payments consistent with the HAMP Plan; however, the payments failed to cure the delinquency. Following the three-month trial period, plaintiff continued to make the same payments as she did under the HAMP Plan. Although the payments were not part of the Plan, Wells Fargo applied them to plaintiffs outstanding balance.
While the HAMP Plan was pending and after plaintiff submitted the required payments, Wells Fargo continued to consider other loss mitigation options for plaintiff, but informed her that the property “would remain in foreclosure processing until a permanent modification or other permanent loss mitigation option was finalized.” Id. at 5.
By letter dated June 3, 2010, Wells Fargo notified plaintiff that she did not qualify for a permanent HAMP modification, but added that it would continue to “review [her] loan for alternative loss mitigation solutions and notify [her] separately of the results of that review.” Id. at 76. Wells Fargo also attempted to contact plaintiff in early June 2010 concerning the need for updated financial information. On June 15, 2010, plaintiff spoke with a Wells Fargo representative and explained that she was out of the state. Wells Fargo agreed to allow plaintiff to submit the documentation upon her return on June 15, 2010; however, on June 16, 2010, it sent plaintiff a letter informing her that it was unable to offer her a loan modification because she failed timely to provide Wells Fargo all of the requested information. After plaintiff contacted Wells Fargo it stopped the pending foreclosure proceedings and resumed its review of loan modification options available to plaintiff.
On or about August 4, 2010, Wells Fargo sent plaintiff a letter offering her a “Special Forbearance Plan” (“Forbearance Plan”). Id. at 82. The cover letter accompanying the Forbearance Plan informed plaintiff that her loan was “due for 11 installments, from 10/01/09 through 08/01/10,” that plaintiff would be required to pay the amounts set forth therein and comply with all terms and conditions, and required her to sign and return a copy of the Plan with the first payment. Id. The August 4, 2010 letter advised plaintiff that it was “not a waiver of the accrued or future payments that become due, but a trial period showing you can make regular monthly payments.” Id.
The “Terms and Conditions” section of the Forbearance Plan also required that plaintiff “immediately sign[ ] and return[ ]” it to Wells Fargo, and provided in pertinent part:
1.....The indebtedness of the referenced loan is in default and in consideration of extending forbearance for a period of time, it is necessary that you indicate your understanding and acceptance of the terms of the forbearance agreement by immediately signing and returning this agreement.
[808]*8082......Upon successful completion of the Agreement, your loan will not be contractually current.
3. The lender is under no obligation to enter into any further agreement, and this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of the lender’s right to insist upon strict performance in the future.
4. All of the provisions of the Note and Security Instrument, except as herein provided, shall remain in full force and effect. Any breach of any provision of this Agreement or no-compliance with this Agreement, shall render the forbearance null and void.
Id. at 84. The Forbearance Plan required plaintiff to make three payments of $2,209.39 each on August 20, 2010, September 20, 2010, and October 20, 2010, and a fourth payment of $27,333.37 on November 20, 2010. Plaintiff failed to return an executed copy of the Forbearance Plan to Wells Fargo.
Notwithstanding her failure to sign and return the Forbearance Plan, plaintiff made the August 20, 2010 payment, and Wells Fargo suspended the foreclosure sale then scheduled for September 2010. Wells Fargo posted the property for the next available foreclosure date in order to proceed with the foreclosure if plaintiff failed to comply with the remaining terms of the Forbearance Plan. On or about September 8, 2010, Wells Fargo caused its foreclosure counsel to send plaintiff, via certified mail, a notice of acceleration and a notice of substitute trustee sale scheduled for October 5, 2010. Plaintiff later attempted to submit the September 20, 2010, payment, but it was returned for insufficient funds. As a result of plaintiffs failure to comply with the requirements of the Forbearance Plan, on October 5, 2010, the property was sold at a foreclosure sale to Freddie Mac for $247,763.62.
Following the foreclosure sale, plaintiff requested a post-foreclosure loss mitigation review. A representative from the office of Wells Fargo’s president contacted plaintiff about her request. On December 30, 2010, plaintiff received notice of an eviction hearing. On January 24, 2011, Wells Fargo sent plaintiff a loan modification agreement, with instructions to sign and return the agreement and other requirements. However, plaintiff failed to sign and return the final loan modification agreement. Consequently, the proffered loan modification expired and Wells Fargo did not rescind the foreclosure sale. Freddie Mac evicted plaintiff from the property on May 22, 2012.
IV.
Applicable Summary Judgment Principles
Rule 56(a) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure provides that the court shall grant summary judgment on a claim or defense if there is no genuine dispute as to any material fact and the movant is entitled to judgment as a matter of law. Fed.R.Civ.P. 56(a); Anderson v. Liberty Lobby, Inc., 477 U.S. 242, 247, 106 S.Ct. 2505, 91 L.Ed.2d 202 (1986). The movant bears the initial burden of pointing out to the court that there is no genuine dispute as to any material fact. Celotex Corp. v. Catrett, 477 U.S. 317, 323, 325, 106 S.Ct. 2548, 91 L.Ed.2d 265 (1986). The movant can discharge this burden by pointing out the absence of evidence supporting one or more essential elements of the nonmoving party’s claim, “since a complete failure of proof concerning an essential element of the nonmoving party’s case necessarily renders all other facts immaterial.” Id. at 323, 106 S.Ct. 2548.
[809]*809Once the movant has carried its burden under Rule 56(a), the nonmoving party must identify evidence in the record that creates a genuine dispute as to each of the challenged elements of its case. Id. at 324, 106 S.Ct. 2548. See also Fed.R.Civ.P. 56(c) (“A party asserting that a fact ... is genuinely disputed must support the assertion by ... citing to particular parts of materials in the record.... ”). If the evidence identified could not lead a rational trier of fact to find in favor of the nonmoving party as to each essential element of the nonmoving party’s case, there is no genuine dispute for trial and summary judgment is appropriate. Matsushita Elec. Indus. Co. v. Zenith Radio Corp., 475 U.S. 574, 587, 597, 106 S.Ct. 1348, 89 L.Ed.2d 538 (1986).
V.
Analysis
A. National Bank Act
Defendants first argue, that all of plaintiffs claims are preempted by the National Bank Act, 12 U.S.C. §§ 21 et seq. (“NBA”). However, none of the cases cited by defendants stand for the proposition that the NBA preempts a plaintiffs state law claims arising out of or related to foreclosure proceedings, as in this case. Because the court concludes that dismissal of plaintiffs claims is warranted on other grounds, it need not decide the preemption issue.
B. Breach of Contradi Anticipatory Breach of Contract
Plaintiff alleged a number of acts by Wells Fargo that she contends constituted breach of contract, including that Wells Fargo: violated section 51.002 of the Texas Property Code and breached the deed of trust by failing to give plaintiff notice of its intent to accelerate or notice of plaintiffs right to cure; breached a unilateral contract formed after plaintiff relied on a number of representations made by Wells Fargo; waived its right to accelerate and foreclose; and breached its duty of good faith and fair dealing imposed under the Uniform Commercial Code (“UCC”), Tex. Bus. & Comm.Code § 3, and the implied duty of good faith and fair dealing imposed due to the imbalance of bargaining power between the parties.
1. Plaintiff Failed to Perform
The essential elements of a breach of contract claim under Texas law are: “(1) the existence of a valid contract; (2) performance or tendered performance by the plaintiff; (3) breach of the contract by the defendant; and (4) damages sustained by the plaintiff as a result of the breach.” Smith Intern., Inc. v. Egle Group, LLC, 490 F.3d 380, 387 (5th Cir.2007) (citing Valero Mktg. & Supply Co. v. Kalama Int'l, L.L.C., 51 S.W.3d 345, 351 (Tex.App.Houston [1st Dist.] 2001, no pet.)).
Wells Fargo argues that plaintiffs breach of contract claim fails because she failed to perform her obligations under the note and deed of trust, and thus she cannot establish one of the essential elements of that claim. The summary judgment record shows that plaintiff “was consistently late on her payments from the outset of the Loan,” and that “[a]s of September 15, 2009, Plaintiff owed monthly payments for July, August and September 2009.” Defs.’ App. at 3-4. Although plaintiff participated in the HAMP Plan, the loan was still delinquent following those payments. Plaintiff’s failure to perform her contractual obligations warrants summary judgment on her breach of contract claim on that basis alone.
In her response plaintiff ignored defendants’ argument concerning her failure to perform under the note and deed of trust, [810]*810and she failed to controvert defendants’ evidence that she fell behind on her payments and defaulted under the terms of the note and deed of trust. Rather than address those issues, plaintiff argues that Wells Fargo waived its right to accelerate and foreclose “through its actions and failures to act starting in late 2009 and lasting until the foreclosure sale on the Property in October 2010.” Pl.’s Br. in Supp. of Pl.’s Resp. to Defs.’ Mot. for Summ. J. (“Pl.’s Resp.”) at 9. This argument fails, as discussed below.
2. No Waiver
To prove waiver, plaintiff must show “(1) an existing right, benefit, or advantage; (2) knowledge, actual or constructive, of its existence; and (3) an actual intent to relinquish the right (which can be inferred from conduct).” G.H. Bass & Co. v. Dalsan Props.-Abilene, 885 S.W.2d 572, 577 (Tex.App.-Dallas 1994, no writ) (internal citations omitted). To prove waiver based on inference, plaintiff has the “onerous” burden to “produce conclusive evidence that the opposite party unequivocably [sic] manifested its intent to no longer assert its claim.” Id. (alteration in original) (internal citations and quotation marks omitted).
Plaintiff contends that Wells Fargo waived its right to accelerate and foreclose because it: proceeded with foreclosure even though plaintiff “had not missed a payment under the trial payment plan,” Pl.’s Resp. at 11; told plaintiff it would not foreclose as long as she was in the loan modification plan, and she made the first payment of the Forbearance Plan; did not notify plaintiff that her September 2010 payment was returned for insufficient funds; sent her a loan modification agreement in January 2 Oil; and acknowledged that the October 2010 foreclosure sale was due to a “servicer error.” Id.
None of the aforementioned actions or omissions can be construed as an unequivocal manifestation by Wells Fargo of an intent to no longer assert its claim. Instead, the summary judgment evidence conclusively shows the opposite: Wells Fargo repeatedly asserted its intent to maintain its right to accelerate and foreclose on the property. The note, deed of trust, HAJMP Plan, and Forbearance Plan all expressly disclaim any intent by Wells Fargo to waive its right to strictly enforce the terms of the note and deed of trust. For example, on the subject of waiver, the note provides:
(D) No Waiver By Note Holder
Even if, at a time when I am in default, the Note Holder does not require me to pay immediately in full as described above, the Note Holder will still have the right to do so if I am in default at a later time.
Defs.’ App. at 10. In the deed of trust:
12. Borrower Not Released; Forbearance By Lender Not a Waiver.
... Any forbearance by Lender in exercising any right or remedy including, without limitation, Lender’s acceptance of payments ... in amounts less than the amount then due shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of any right or remedy.
Id. at 18. Similarly, the HAMP Plan stated:
E. When the Lender accepts and posts a payment during the Trial Period it ... will not be deemed a waiver of[ ] the acceleration of the loan or foreclosure action and related activities.
Id. at 63. And, in the Forbearance Plan, “this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of the lender’s right to insist upon strict performance in the future.” Id. at 84.
[811]*811As demonstrated by all of the above language, Wells Fargo could not have made any clearer that it had no intention of waiving any rights it had under the note and deed of trust. Plaintiff has adduced no evidence to the contrary.
3. No Breach of Deed of Trust or Texas Property Code
Plaintiffs claim that Wells Fargo breached the deed of trust and Texas Property Code also fails. Texas Property Code § 51.002 contains two notice provisions. Section 51.002(b) requires that notice of the foreclosure sale be given at least 21 days before the sale. Section 51.002(d) requires that the debtor be informed that she is in default and given at least 20 days to cure the default.
Wells Fargo has adduced summary judgment evidence that notice of default was sent to plaintiff on or about September 27, 2009. The notice informed plaintiff that: her loan was in default, and if she failed to bring the loan current “it will become necessary to accelerate” the note and pursue the remedies provided in the loan documents. Defs.’ App. at 55. The notice informed plaintiff of the total amount of delinquency of her loan, and informed her of her right to reinstate the note and deed of trust after acceleration. Evidence of the September 8, 2010, notice of acceleration and notice of sale informing plaintiff of the October 5, 2010 foreclosure sale of her property is likewise in the summary judgment record.
In response, plaintiff argues there is no evidence that the September 27, 2009 notice of default was sent via certified mail; however, Wells Fargo’s representative testified to that fact, and plaintiff has only offered her speculation in opposition. While plaintiff does not dispute receiving the September 8, 2010 notice of acceleration and notice of sale, she argues that Wells Fargo had no right to foreclose because it breached the Forbearance Plan by failing to comply with its representations in the August 4, 2010 letter. Again, however, plaintiff ignored her own noncompliance: her failure to sign and return the Forbearance Plan, by its terms, rendered it “null and void.” Defs.’ App. at 84.
To the extent plaintiff attempts to base her breach of contract claims on any alleged breach by defendants of the HAMP Plan or the Forbearance Plan, she failed to allege such claims in any of her pleadings. “A claim which is not raised in the complaint but, rather, is raised only in response to a motion for summary judgment is not properly before the court.” Cutrera v. Bd. of Supervisors of La. State Univ., 429 F.3d 108, 113 (5th Cir.2005). Accordingly, plaintiffs claims for breach of the HAMP Plan and the Forbearance Plan are not properly before the court.
4. No Recovery for Anticipatory Breach of Contract
An anticipatory breach of contract “is a positive and unconditional refusal to perform the contract in the future, expressed either before performance is due or after partial performance.” Van Polen v. Wisch, 23 S.W.3d 510, 516 (Tex.App.-Houston [1st Dist.] 2000, pet. denied) (internal citations omitted). To establish anticipatory breach of contract requires plaintiff to prove “(1) an absolute repudiation of the obligation; (2) a lack of just excuse for the repudiation; and (3) damage to the nonrepudiating party.” Gonzalez v. Denning, 394 F.3d 388, 394 (5th Cir.2004) (internal citation omitted).
The Complaint does not specify the exact conduct of Wells Fargo that comprises plaintiffs anticipatory breach of contract claim. The court agrees with defendants, however, that plaintiff has adduced no [812]*812summary judgment evidence to show she is entitled to recover on such a claim.
In her response plaintiff describes the following as evidence by Wells Fargo of “[ajbsolute repudiation:”
• Wells Fargo offered and Plaintiff accepted a trial payment plan in October 2009. Plaintiff made all the payments pursuant to the trial payment plan. According to the Plan, if Plaintiff made all the required payments: “then the Lender will provide me with a Loan Modification Agreement.” Defendants failed to permanently modify Plaintiffs loan.
• Wells Fargo offered and Plaintiff accepted a forbearance agreement where Plaintiff was to make payments of $2,209.39 each month beginning on August 20, 2010 with a final payment on November 20, 2010. The agreement stated [] that “if your loan is in foreclosure, we will instruct our foreclosure counsel to suspend foreclosure proceedings once the initial installment has been received.” It is undisputed that Plaintiff made the initial payment. However, after making the September 2010 payment, Defendant foreclosed in October 2010.
Pl.’s Resp. at 18 (internal record citations omitted).
Plaintiff has mischaracterized the provisions of the HAMP Plan. The cover letter and HAMP Plan clearly stated that plaintiff had to meet certain requirements to be eligible for a permanent modification. The summary judgment evidence shows that upon Wells Fargo’s review of plaintiffs documentation following the HAMP Plan, it determined she failed to meet those qualifications and informed her of that fact in the June 3, 2010 letter. And as discussed previously, plaintiff cannot rely on provisions of the Forbearance Plan because she failed to comply with the requirement to sign and return a copy. Nevertheless, even accepting plaintiffs argument, none of the above allegations could constitute an absolute repudiation of an obligation by Wells Fargo, nor do they show that Wells Fargo positively and unconditionally refused to perform an obligation in the future.4
5. No Breach of the Duty of Good Faith and Fair Dealing
A common-law duty of good faith and fair dealing “is not imposed in every contract but only in special relationships marked by shared trust or an imbalance in bargaining power.” FDIC v. Coleman, 795 S.W.2d 706, 708-09 (Tex.1990). The relationship between a mortgagor and mortgagee does not ordinarily involve a duty of good faith, id. at 709, and plaintiff has alleged no facts, nor cited to authority, that would remove her relationship with Wells Fargo from ordinary consideration.
Plaintiff in the Complaint and the response to the summary judgment motion also alleged that the note is a negotiable instrument, which is governed by chapters one and three of the UCC, Texas Business & Commerce Code §§ 1.304 and 3. According to plaintiff, the UCC imposes a duty of good faith and fair dealing in every contract, and Wells Fargo breached that duty. Contrary to plaintiffs assertions, however, “[bjecause the Deed of Trust places a lien on real property, it is not governed by the UCC.” Vogel v. Travelers Indem. Co., 966 S.W.2d 748, 753 (Tex.App.-San Antonio 1998, no pet.) (emphasis in original).
[813]*813The comments to section three of the UCC also could not be more clear: “Article 3 is not meant to apply to contracts for ... the sale or lease of real property or similar writings that may contain a promise to pay money.” Tex. Bus. & Comm. Code § 3.104, Cmt. 2.5 Plaintiff has provided the court with no authority supporting her claim that the UCC applies to this case.
In sum, the court concludes that summary judgment is warranted on plaintiffs breach of contract claim.
C. Wrongful ForeclosurefWrongful Eviction
To state a claim for wrongful foreclosure, plaintiff must show: “(1) a defect in the foreclosure sale proceedings; (2) a grossly inadequate selling price; and (3) a causal connection between the defect and the grossly inadequate selling price.” Sauceda v. GMAC Mortg. Corp., 268 S.W.3d 135, 139 (Tex.App.-Corpus Christi 2008, no pet.).
Here, plaintiffs wrongful foreclosure claim is based on the same allegations as her breach of contract claim: that Wells Fargo had no right to foreclose but did so anyway in breach of the Forbearance Plan, thus demonstrating a defect in foreclosure proceedings. For the reasons discussed in section B, supra, the court finds this argument unavailing.
Similarly, plaintiff appears to contend that the sales price of the property— $247,763.62 — was grossly inadequate in light of the tax appraisal value of $285,500. Under Texas law a grossly inadequate price would have to be “consideration so far short of the real value of the property as to shock a correct mind, and thereby raise a presumption that fraud attended the purchase.” Richardson v. Kent, 47 S.W.2d 420, 425 (Tex.Civ.App.-Dallas 1932, no writ) (citation omitted). “The weight of Texas authority rejects a determination of gross inadequacy where ... property sells for over 60% of fair market value.” FDIC v. Blanton, 918 F.2d 524, 531-32 (5th Cir.1990) (noting that in Texas, cases finding gross inadequacy typically involve a selling price below sixty percent of the property’s value).
Here, accepting as true plaintiffs contention that $285,500 was the appraised value of the property, the foreclosure price was over eighty percent of the property’s value. Plaintiffs wrongful foreclosure claim fails on this basis as a matter of law.
The sole basis of plaintiffs wrongful eviction claim against Freddie Mac is that because Wells Fargo had no right to foreclose, Freddie Mac had no right to declare plaintiff a tenant at sufferance and had no right to evict her. The court has already resolved the foreclosure issue favorably to defendants. Accordingly, summary judgment is warranted on this claim.
D. Unreasonable Collection Efforts
Unreasonable collection is an intentional tort, the exact contours of which are not clearly defined. EMC Mortg. Corp. v. Jones, 252 S.W.3d 857, 868 (Tex.App.-Dallas 2008, no pet.). Courts have described the tort as collection efforts that amount to “a course of harassment that was willful, wanton, malicious, and intended to inflict mental anguish and bodily harm.” Id.; Montgomery Ward & Co. v. Brewer, 416 S.W.2d 837, 844-45 (Tex. [814]*814Civ.App.-Waco 1967, writ ref'd n.r.e.). The court agrees with defendants that there is no summary judgment evidence to support such a claim.
Plaintiff first takes issue with Wells Fargo’s use of the standard described in Jones, cited above. Instead, plaintiff argues that the correct standard is “efforts which a person of ordinary prudence in the exercise of ordinary care on his part would not have exercised under the same or similar circumstances.” Employee Fin. Co. v. Lathram, 363 S.W.2d 899, 901 (Tex.Civ.App.-Fort Worth 1962), rev’d on other grounds, 369 S.W.2d 927 (Tex.1963). The court does not agree. In a recent unpublished opinion, the Fifth Circuit affirmed summary judgment for the defendant on plaintiffs’ claim of unreasonable collection efforts where the district court applied the standard found in Jones.6 De Franceschi v. BAC Home Loans Servicing, L.P., 477 Fed.Appx. 200, 204-05 (5th Cir.2012) (unpublished). Thus, the court concludes that Jones sets the bar by which the court must measure plaintiffs claim of unreasonable collection efforts. By that standard, plaintiff falls short.
In the Complaint plaintiff alleged that the acts constituting unreasonable collection efforts were that Wells Fargo: “failed to give Plaintiff a chance to reinstate or cure the default, and intentionally misled and delayed Plaintiff to the point of foreclosure,” Compl. at 11; assessed late charges, penalties, and other additional charges; and improperly placed the property in foreclosure.7 The court finds that these allegations fail to describe “a course of harassment that was willful, wanton, malicious, and intended to inflict mental anguish and bodily harm.”
Plaintiff relies on Overholt v. Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., Case No. 4:10-CV-618, 2011 WL 4862525 (E.D.Tex. Sept. 2, 2011), report and recommendation adopted by 2011 WL 4862706 (E.D.Tex. Oct. 13, 2011), to support her contention that Wells Fargo’s actions constitute unreasonable collection efforts. Plaintiffs reliance on Overholt is misplaced. That case was before the court on a motion to dismiss under Rule 12(b)(6) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. The court noted that its decision not to dismiss the unreasonable collection efforts claim was a “close call,” and indicated that the defendant “should be able to develop the facts in a motion for summary judgment.” Id. at *7.
In contrast, other judges in the Northern District of Texas that have considered the issue, under very similar circumstances, have dismissed such claims brought by plaintiffs in federal court, noting that Texas courts generally do not sustain claims of unreasonable collection efforts when the plaintiff still owes money to the lender. See, e.g., Sanghera v. Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., Case No. 3:10-CV-2414-B, 2012 WL 555155, at *7 (N.D.Tex. Feb. 21, 2012); Steele v. Green Tree Servicing, LLC, Case No. 3:09-CV-0603-D, 2010 WL 3565415, at *6 (N.D.Tex. Sept. 7, 2010); Mitchell v. Chase Home Fin. LLC, Case No. 3:06-CV-2099-K, 2008 WL 623395, at *6 (N.D.Tex. Mar. 4, 2008). The same result is warranted here. Although there may be some disagreement as to the actual amount owed, it cannot be disputed that plaintiff failed to pay all [815]*815amounts due under the note and deed of trust.
E. TDCPA
Plaintiff claims that Wells Fargo violated the following provisions of the TDCPA:
a) Using a deceptive means to collect a debt § 392.304(19) Tex. Fin.Code;
b) Misrepresenting the character, extent, or amount of a consumer debt, in violation of § 392.304(a)(8) of the Texas Finance Code;
c) Violating § 392.303(a)(2) of the Tex. Fin.Code; and
d) Violating § 392.301(a)(8) of the Tex. Fin.Code.
Compl. at 13. Section 392.303(a) prohibits the use of “unfair or unconscionable means” to collect incidental interest, charges, fees, or expenses; section 392.301(a)(8) prohibits debt collectors from “threatening to take an action prohibited by law.”
In her response plaintiff claims Wells Fargo violated § 392.301(a)(8) because it foreclosed on her property even though its rights to accelerate and foreclose had not matured due to its failure to comply with the deed of trust and Forbearance Plan. A violation of § 392.301(a)(8) occurs only when a debt collector takes or threatens to take an action prohibited by law. Foreclosure is not an action prohibited by law, and the court has already decided plaintiffs wrongful foreclosure and breach of contract claims concerning the note and deed of trust in favor of Wells Fargo.
Plaintiff contends that Wells Fargo violated §§ 392.303(a)(2) and 392.304(a)(19) by “imposing] numerous charges (i.e. late charges, fees, corporate advances, foreclosure fees) to Plaintiffs loan.” Pl.’s Resp. at 25. Plaintiff has directed the court to no summary judgment evidence to support these contentions, especially concerning fees or charges that Wells Fargo was not lawfully entitled to impose on plaintiff due to her failure to fulfill her payment obligations.
Finally, plaintiffs allegations concerning § 392.304(a)(8) appear to comprise the same allegations supporting her claims for breach of contract, namely, that plaintiff was not offered a permanent loan modification agreement and that she was prevented from continuing to participate in the Forbearance Plan. The court has discussed these- issues in previous sections of this memorandum opinion and order and sees no need to revisit them here, except to note they have all been resolved against plaintiff. The court concludes that no genuine issues of material fact exist pertaining to plaintiffs TDCPA claims.
F. Negligent Misrepresentation
To prevail on her claim of negligent misrepresentation, plaintiff must show: (1) Wells Fargo made a representation in the course of its business, or in a transaction in which it had a pecuniary interest; (2) Wells Fargo supplied “false information” for the guidance of others in their business; (3) Wells Fargo failed to exercise reasonable care or competence in obtaining or communicating the information; and (4) plaintiff justifiably relied on the representations to her detriment. Fed. Land Bank Ass’n of Tyler v. Sloane, 825 S.W.2d 439, 442 (Tex.1991). The type of misrepresentation contemplated is a statement of existing fact, not a promise of future conduct. BCY Water Supply Corp. v. Residential Inv., Inc., 170 S.W.3d 596, 603 (Tex.App.-Tyler 2005, pet. denied). “A promise to do or refrain from doing an act in the future is not actionable because it does not concern an existing fact.” Id. (citations omitted).
[816]*816The alleged misrepresentations, as described in plaintiffs response, relate to promises to provide a loan modification, or the possibility of lowering plaintiffs mortgage payment, or the circumstances under which Wells Fargo would not foreclose or would rescind a foreclosure. All of these alleged misrepresentations constitute promises of future conduct and cannot form the basis of a negligent misrepresentation claim. The only possible allegations of existing fact are that Wells Fargo agreed to give plaintiff until June 15, 2010, to submit additional documentation for a loan modification, but before that date, it dropped her from the loan modification program for failing to provide the information. However, plaintiff fails to allege how she relied on these representations to her detriment.8
The court has considered defendants’ remaining arguments as to plaintiffs negligent misrepresentation claim and concludes that they appear to have merit. However, the court need not address those arguments here, as it has resolved that claim as described above.
G. Suit to Quiet Title and Trespass to Try Title
A suit to quiet title and a trespass to try title action are two distinct causes of action under Texas law. Fricks v. Hancock, 45 S.W.3d 322, 327 (Tex.App.Corpus Christi 2001, no pet.). A trespass to try title action is a statutory cause of action that is “the method of determining title” to real property. Tex. Prop.Code § 22.001; Martin v. Amerman, 133 S.W.3d 262, 265 (Tex.2004). In contrast, a suit to quiet title is an equitable action intended to remove a cloud of title on property. Fricks, 45 S.W.3d at 327. Although plaintiff titled this portion of her Complaint as a suit to quiet title and a trespass to try title claim, both the Complaint and her response to the motion for summary judgment address only the latter. Thus, the court will likewise treat plaintiffs claim as one solely for trespass to try title.
To prevail on a trespass to try title action, a plaintiff must prove title to the property by: “(1) proving a regular chain of conveyances from the sovereign, (2) establishing superior title out of a common source, (3) proving title by limitations, or (4) proving title by prior possession coupled with proof that possession was not abandoned.” Caress v. Lira, 330 S.W.3d 363, 364 (Tex.App.-San Antonio 2010, pet. denied) (citations omitted). Success on a trespass to try title claim requires plaintiff to prove the strength of her title, not merely rely on the weaknesses of Freddie Mac’s title. Fricks, 45 S.W.3d at 327.
Plaintiffs trespass to try title claim arises from the same facts that underlie her breach of contract claims. Specifically, plaintiff contends that because Wells Fargo failed to comply with the deed of trust and with section 51.002 of the Texas Property Code, it had no right to foreclose on plaintiffs property and the foreclosure sale is void. Because the sale is void, plaintiff argues that Freddie Mac’s purchase of the property is void and it [817]*817obtained no title, because a purchaser at a foreclosure sale obtains no better title than the trustee can give.
The court has already rejected plaintiffs theory concerning alleged defects in the foreclosure proceeding. There being no other basis for plaintiffs trespass to try title claim, the court concludes she has failed to establish superior title to the property, and summary judgment is warranted on this claim.
H. Declaratory Judgment
The Complaint seeks relief under the Declaratory Judgment Act (“Act”), 28 U.S.C. §§ 2201 & 2202. The Act is a procedural device that creates no substantive rights, but only provides relief when a justiciable controversy exists between the parties. Aetna Life Ins. Co. v. Haworth, 300 U.S. 227, 239-41, 57 S.Ct. 461, 81 L.Ed. 617 (1937). Because the court has concluded that all of plaintiffs claims and causes of action should be dismissed, no justiciable controversy remains between the parties. Accordingly, summary judgment is warranted on plaintiffs request for declaratory judgment.
I. Accounting and Malice
Plaintiff seeks “an Order for an accounting of all transactions on her mortgage loan.” Compl. at 14. “An action for accounting may be a suit in equity, or it may be a particular remedy sought in conjunction with another cause of action.” Michael v. Dyke, 41 S.W.3d 746, 754 (Tex.App.-Corpus Christi 2001, no pet.), abrogated on other grounds as recognized by Buck v. Palmer, 379 S.W.3d 309, 322-23, Case No. 13-09-00192-CV, 2010 WL 5167704, at *12 (Tex.App.-Corpus Christi 2010, pet. filed) (mem.op.) (citations omitted). In her response plaintiff clarifies that she “has not brought a cause of action for an accounting, but seeks an accounting as part of the remedy sought in this matter.” Pl.’s Resp. at 35. Because the court has dismissed all of plaintiffs claims and causes of action, she is not entitled to relief in the form of an accounting.
Similarly, under the “Causes of Action” section of the Complaint is a heading titled “Malice.” Compl. at 12. Although defendants moved for summary judgment on “malice,” plaintiff in her response clarified that she did not intend to assert malice as a separate cause of action, but only as a means to recover exemplary damages. Because the court has dismissed all of plaintiffs claims and causes of action, her contentions of malice are moot.
