FAQs

What does a property tax consultant do?

A property tax consultant provides tax assessment and tax management services to residential, commercial, and industrial clients. At UPTG, we have professional property tax consultants who can help you or your business minimize the taxes and administrative costs you need to pay to the government. Not only that, but our tax consultants can also give you strategies on how to lower your property taxes and assess their values.

What does total assessment mean on property taxes?

Total assessment refers to the assessed value of your property. It is a yearly estimation of your property’s worth, determined by your tax district’s municipal property assessor. Local tax officials use the value to calculate the property taxes you pay on your property each year.

Do property taxes go up when you refinance?

Most of the time, refinancing won’t change your property taxes. However, your mortgage company may increase your monthly payment to cover the higher amount if your tax rates increase in any way.

Are property tax protest companies worth it?

Some people are in doubt whether to protest their property taxes annually or not. At UPTG, we recommend protesting your property taxes to minimize the cost. This is because the total property taxes you pay are affected by the process’s arbitrary nature. Therefore, there’s a high chance that the appraisal districts have used inaccurate information and an inaccurate model to value your home. There are cases when some houses are overvalued or undervalued, resulting in unequal appraisal.

How much can Texas property tax increase?

Property taxes can’t go up too much because a voter’s approval is required. Although too much is subjective, a new Texas law says a city can’t raise property taxes more than 3.5% without voter approval. However, in case of disaster, the tax could rise to 8%.
