DFW residential real estate » Texas property tax rates » DFW property tax rates
If you are relocating to the Dallas area from another state, your property taxes may be higher here than where you lived previously. The offset is that in Texas you will not be paying any state or local personal income taxes. Depending on your level of income and the value of your home, your total annual state and local tax bill may be less than it is where you are currently living. Additionally, Texas is one of only 12 states in the nation without a residential real estate transfer tax. In fact, recent U.S. Census data shows Texas ranks 37th among the 50 states in percentage of per capita personal income spent on state and local taxes.
Property taxes are calculated by multiplying the assessed value of the property minus applicable homestead, age 65+ and disability exemption amounts by the mil rates levied by the taxing authorities that have jurisdiction where the property is located. Texas state law defines the assessed value of real property as the market value of a property on January 1, the first day of the tax year. Official property tax exemption information can be found at State of Texas Comptroller property tax exemptions.
Property taxes typically are paid in a single annual payment that is due on or before December 31, the final day of the tax year.
Becoming familiar with the analyses on this website can help identify the best places in the Dallas area for you to live. Acquiring the home that best meets your wants and needs, however, usually is done most efficiently with the assistance of a capable real estate agent.

Additionally, the mention of the December 31 deadline for the single annual payment of property taxes aligns with my practical knowledge of the timelines associated with tax obligations in the real estate sector.
The inclusion of school district tax rates underscores the relevance of educational considerations in property tax planning. My experience involves guiding clients in making informed decisions by considering school district tax implications alongside other factors.
Furthermore, the article provides a detailed breakdown of property tax rates for 13 counties in the DFW area. This aligns with my proficiency in navigating the diverse tax structures across counties, crucial for clients seeking properties in specific jurisdictions.
