A property tax break aiming to provide relief to Texas homeowners will undergo several special sessions.
Texas Homeowners Will Expect Up To $12.3 Billion in Property Tax Break Under New Proposal
Several homeowners in Texas expect to receive a property tax break of up to $12.3 billion under a new proposed plan focusing on cutting the property tax rates to zero.
According to CBS Austin reports, the proposed property tax break in Texas will focus on lowering the property tax rates in several school districts, including their operation and maintenance rates so that several homeowners will receive relief.
Under the proposed property tax break, Texas officials will seek to eliminate the property taxes completely for several homeowners instead of only providing short-term tax relief.
