Tax Amounts? (Houston, San Antonio, Roma: insurance, mortgage, home)

[dakotamidnight]

When do the new tax amounts come out from BCAD?

I thought they should have been out by now, but nothing.

I was thinking the same thing actually because by last April my mortgage had already adjusted to compensate for escrow account differences.

I thought it was May because a lot of the exemption claim deadlines are in April.

In past years, BCAD has been updated on April 16th.

I'm pretty sure that the April appraisal values are not sent to banks, just the property tax bills in October after protests and tax rates are settled. Banks usually use last year's property tax and home insurance amounts to adjust for the current period.

The first written notices will be mailed next week, but only to those whose values are increasing. Property owners will be able to find their new values on Bexar Appraisal District when they are posted beginning April 25.

Just saw that myself on the KSAT Twitter - so I guess April 25th I should know.

Houston hcad posted most already... I wonder why we are not ready yet. After that there is not much time to file protest if someone needs too do so...
