$5k in taxes were added for "GREATER NORTHSIDE MGMT D"
I own a property in Houston area code 77009, and the total property taxes for 2020 were $7,774.04.
However, my lender added a NEW additional tax for 2021 adding $5,574 to my tax obligations as shown below:
When I look at the the HCAD tax jurisdictions, I see this has always been a blank item going back for all past property tax records:
And when I look at past property tax bills, this line item has NEVER had an amount.
Does anyone in Houston familiar with property taxes have any idea what is happening here? I called my lender and they said that I was only paying $0.01 for that tax for 2020 which was wrong.
In 2020, I did protest my taxes and get them lowered significantly. Is it possible that the $7k was reduced to $5k, and the lender got two bills and got confused?
The extra $5k tax was a huge surprise and increased my mortgage payment by $200 / month which is crazy.
