Hey Account Closed - as said earlier, unfortunately the tax assessed value isn't too relevant in determining a selling price or value of the property.If it's a single-family, the most important thing is to look at comps.

Of course, there is a possibility of making small concessions for long term tenants in a special circumstance, but that should be the exception not the norm.

I do not have such a referral unfortunately.

Unfortunately, banks (and many other lenders) do the underwriting at the last second.

Some kind of strange circumstance that requires it?

So, unfortunately, yes, tell the tenants that you are giving them notice as you are doing a gut rehab and then follow through.

Unfortunately, term leases give the control of your property back to the tenant. 

I don’t even know what that means, regarding ‘state level’.I totally agree about how title insurance was issued under these circumstances.

Also having sat through a few court dates I can tell you a lot of lawyers unfortunately don't know the new laws, and don't do a good job on the petition, unbelievable the amount of cases thrown out for technicalities... 

I have several properties in Katy that I personally own so maybe I'm a little biased :) Unfortunately, great schools command high taxes.
