2013 property taxes in Texas

[Wade G.]

I live in Harris County Texas and I just recieved my first final appraised value for one of my rentals. It went up 67% in one year. It went from 70k to 117k. It originally went up to 122k but was protested down to 117k. Funny thing is it would never sell for 122k anyway. I thought there was a 10% appraisal cap per year but once again I am wrong. I can't wait to see the other values come in. This may only be the case in Harris County and may not include other areas of Texas though.
