re: 'Unprecedented': Property tax bills have reached double value for Texas homeowners

I don't think any counties have set the tax rate yet and I don't think any tax bills have been sent out yet. Those usually go out in October.

What has been sent out is the appraisals. If your elected officials are responsible, they will lower the tax rate based on a determination of need and your tax increase will likely not match your increase in appraised value.

Even so, wait a year or two or three when property values plummet and see how you feel. I bet we hear more bitching about the upcoming crash than we are hearing about this boom.
