How To Calculate Texas Property Taxes | Luis Cuevas Realtor® | RE/MAX Cross Country

/ Luis Cuevas Realtor® | RE/MAX Cross Country/

Property taxes in Texas can be confusing with so many terms being thrown in the mix.  Today I take it step by step and break it down in a simple to understand format.

Property taxes are actually pretty simple and they consist of two main factors: 1) Assessed Property Value & 2) Tax rates.  Property values are set by the appraisal district on each property.  Tax rates are set by each entity which governs your home, for example the city, county and school district.

The math is simple we first add up the tax rates for the taxing entities and get a total.  We grab that total and multiply it by the assessed value on the given property.  The result gives you the total taxes on the property.  Pretty simple, right?

I will be creating another video where I cover some of those confusing terms I mentioned early.  Also things you can do to get a discount on your property taxes.

It is that time of year again when you receive the dreaded notice from the local appraisal district notifying you of their proposed valuation on your home.  This of course is the first step in determining how much in taxes you will be paying at the end of the year.

Well there is no need to fear this notice or be intimidated by it as well as I am here to help you.  If you feel their proposed values are too high or you are not certain be sure to reach out to me and have me double check them for you.
