Palm tree

[Lonnieg]

Want to get info on this kind of tree and if it’s to close to the house to make foundation problems later with roots.

That’s a Washingtonia robusta (Mexican Fan Palm) which are exceptionally common in Northern and Southern CA and the Southwest US in general as well as much of Texas. Generally, palms do not pose a problem with foundations, driveways, or sidewalks. Your palm will grow to 100 feet tall in its lifetime. It’s a bit close to your house but not to the degree of its trunk growing up against your wall. It will at some point years down the line, drop dead fronds and seed pods onto your roof that will need to be fetched. These palms transplant well, so if you want it moved, its chances of survival will be good.
