Property Tax Calculation

The Texas Tax Code establishes the framework by which local governments levy and collect property taxes. Usually county governments impose the largest taxes, and often there are additional taxes imposed by special taxation districts. The primary expenditures funded by property taxes are K-12 schools and infrastructure and services like roads and emergency services.

Market Value

Market value has been defined by The Supreme Court as the sale price of real estate as agreed upon between a willing buyer and willing seller, with neither being under duress to buy or sell.

Appraised Value

Establishing appraised value of a property represents the first step towards determining its taxable value. The appraised value is calculated by using the Agricultural/Timber Use Value instead of the agriculture or timber market value.

This property does not have agricultural/timber use value, therefore the appraised value will be equal to market value.

Assessed Value

The second step is determining the property's assessed value which is obtained by subtracting the homestead cap loss value from the appraised value. This applies only in the case of residential homestead and cannot exceed the lesser of the market value or the preceding year's appraised value, plus 10%, plus the value of any improvements added since the last re-appraisal.

Property Tax

Base tax is an estimate of what an owner not benefiting from tax exemptions or deductions would pay and is calculated by multiplying the assessed value with the corresponding tax rates.

Tax description		Tax amount
Base tax	=	$36,147

A variety of property tax exemptions are available in Texas State, and these may be deducted from the assessed value to give the property's taxable value.
Current tax represents the amount the present owner pays, including exemptions.
