How high really are the taxes on a purchased home in Katy,TX?

Answer 1

For the most part, property taxes in TX are hideously high with the exception of some seriously remote backwater areas. This is because TX does not have an income tax. It's not unusual at all to pay between 4% and 5% of the full FMV each year. I shelled out over $3,400per year for a property outside of San Antonio that was valued at $83,000.
