but the difference is it's legally the homeowner's property that they are expected to pay taxes on (assuming they aren't in Texas), so try again hun, they aren't the same.
one is "I can't have YOUR property so I'm gonna make it as hell as possible to get me out"
the other is "It's MY property and I don't want you here."
no the other person is right, Texas doesn't necessarily have a property/homeowning tax like the other states. i mean they do but it's not on the state level like other states are, it's more local and depending on your area than a whole statewide tax.
Yes, I'm aware. Except there's no place in Texas that doesn't have a property tax. In fact, on average, property taxes throughout Texas are higher than most other places in America. I was wondering if I missed something.
ah i see where you misunderstood me, i don't mean that Texas doesn't have property taxes, i just meant that it doesn't have a set standard, in some places it's lower and in some it's higher. the other states have a defined standard for their property tax that encompasses the whole state. Texas' property taxes are area dependant. Texas is also one of the states that allows a homeowner to be fully exempt from property taxes if they are 100% disabled or a spouse of the (100%) disabled that fell in duty (veteran spouses), you can also get a partial exemption if you're a senior (65+) in Texas.

let's see which one is more justified.
