The Texas Property Tax Problem
Texas has no income tax.
You're paying for it in property taxes.
Your appraisal district uses mass formulas to guess your home's value. They don't walk your property. They don't see the foundation issues, the outdated kitchen, or the drainage problems.
They plug numbers into a spreadsheet. And more often than not, they get it wrong.
That's why 186,000 Texas homeowners filed protests last year. Most of them were right—their homes were overvalued.
