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 it's taxable value. The appraised value is calculated by using the Agricultural/Timber Use Value instead of the agriculture or timber market value. If there are no such values, then appraised value will be equal to market value.

This property does not have agricultural/timber use value; 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 apply only in the case of residential homestead, when the assessment increase, and this is limited to a maximum of 10%.

Property Tax

Property tax is calculated by multiplying the assessed value with the corresponding tax rates and is an estimate of what an owner not benefiting of any exemptions would pay.
