After a historic state legislative decision earlier this month, I was curious why I wasn't seeing more publicity regarding this topic. After moving into our first home in 2021, we were urged to get our homestead exemption filed and after seeing the numbers, I understood why.😆 Currently, the state of #texas ranks #6 in the nation for the highest property tax rates with an average tax of 1.66% (yahoo finance). #harriscountytx (Greater Houston), the most populated county in the state, has an average property tax rate of 2.31% (tax-rates.org). If you are a current #homeowner, own multiple properties, a #smallbiz owner, or care anything about your monthly expenses, this is HUGE! All of these proposed changes only go into effect if they are approved by #TexasVoters on November 7th! So #vote and get your #homesteadexemption filed with your local appraisal district to take advantage of these savings! I created this graphic with the highlights from the passed legislation - hope it helps!

Received a substantial property tax bill? Stay informed and take proactive steps to mitigate the impact on your finances. Explore this guide for practical ways to save on property taxes: Seek an independent appraisal: If your property's assessed value poses a challenge, consider engaging an independent appraiser. For a reasonable fee, they can evaluate whether your home's value is lower than the current assessment—an investment that could yield significant returns. Challenge exemptions: Maximize potential savings by verifying your eligibility for property tax exemptions based on age, disability, or veteran status. Ensure you claim all applicable exemptions to optimize your financial position. Apply for homestead status: Officially designate your home as your primary residence if it is your only dwelling. This can qualify you for a homestead exemption, potentially resulting in substantial reductions in property taxes. Participate in tax hearings: Exercise your voice by attending local tax hearings where future rates are discussed. Share your concerns and insights to play a role in maintaining reasonable tax rates within your community. Questions or concerns? Feel free to send me a DM.

Hello LinkedIn Family! Unlocking the Mystery of Property Tax in the U.S. Ever wondered about that annual bill on your property? What is Property Tax? Property tax is a charge imposed by local governments based on the assessed value of your real estate. It funds essential community services like schools, roads, and public safety. Here's the deal: Your property's value gets assessed, and a tax rate is applied. While it may seem like a yearly expense, remember, it's an investment in your community's well-being. Understanding this tax is key to being a savvy homeowner. Let's demystify property tax together! #propertytax #realestate #communityinvestment Ramanuj Mukherjee Abhyuday Agarwal Yash Vijayvargiya Priyanka Sinnarkar Chidimma Nwosu-Okoli Kishore Chennu DTS Duijn's Tax Solutions CA Shubham Mittal Sachin Kumar LAXMI OJHA

If you have tenants in your home there can be Capital Gains Tax (CGT) consequences. Generally, there is no Capital Gains Tax (CGT) on a property used as the main family residence, thanks to a relief known as Private Residence Relief (PRR). #LettingsRelief #PrivateResidenceLettings

Proposition 19: Property Tax Increase Limits on Primary Residences How does Proposition 19 change the rules on tax basis portability? Prop 19 allows a homeowner who is 55 years of age or older, severely disabled or whose home has been substantially damaged by wildfire or natural disaster to transfer the taxable value of their primary residence to: a) a replacement primary residence anywhere in the state, b) regardless of the value of the replacement primary residence (but with adjustments if replacement has a greater value), c) within two years of the sale and d) up to three times (or as often as needed for those whose houses were destroyed by fire). The prior rule limited this exemption to a one-time transfer within the same county (Prop 60) or between certain counties (Prop 90) and only if the replacement property was of "equal or lesser value." I can help identify, for you and others you know, your potential adjusted property tax! #realtor #realestate #taxes
