Two judgements were issued against my husband while separated but before divorced. Judgements are in his name only. In the divorce he signed a warranty giving me our homestead property. Should the judgement be attached to the property, and if so what does this mean for me in the future? We are in Texas.

Is there a lien against the property? It is possible that the judgment was obtained but no lien was filed.
Take the property out of his name and put it in your individual name - which I believe was your agreement.
Mortgage companies do NOT have to respect Court Orders if there is mortgage money involved.
Once the property is out of his name a judgment cannot be filed against it.
Again - it's important to know IF a lien has been filed.
