This has been fought in court as far as it can go (my father is a lawyer and has been fighting property taxes in court for 40 years) and has only gotten about $40,000 in relief.

I've already urged the listing Broker and agents to educate Seller as to the benefits of pmm... higher sales price, ultimately more money from interest payments, relief from liability and dealing with awkward leases, putting an end to nearly 2 years of marketing, etc.

Some major pending (and potentially retroactive) tax law changes made it through the house. Thoughts? Progress of Act

Texas recently passed a tax relief for property owners.  

. 📈📉 The Fed's decision to maintain rates at 5.25%-5.50% in November and September 2023 brought a sigh of relief to the banking sector and a hint of calm to the stock market. 🏦💼 Let's keep a keen eye on the financial horizon and see what unfolds!

Is there interim relief that can be filed with the Water department while this is being investigate ? 

It looks like the Tax Relief for American Families and Workers Act of 2024 is going to pass soon.

Yep...weeds in pavers is down-to-earth and a welcome relief!

If there are no calls or texts from tenants I breathe a sigh of relief and smile. 

PS: The contract is a standard Texas purchase agreement for a single family home and it says: "If Seller fails to comply with this contract, Seller will be in default and Buyer may (a) enforce specific performance, seek such other relief as may be provided by law, or both, or (b) terminate this contract and receive the earnest money, thereby releasing both parties from this contract."
