The Harris County tax assessor urges Texas homeowners to apply for property tax exemptions before the April 30 deadline.

The Texas Legislature is poised to increase the state’s homestead exemption by at least $40,000 for homeowners, effectively lowering school taxes for property owners on their primary residence.

The proposal raises the homestead exemption from $100,000 to $140,000 for most homeowners, effectively reducing the taxable value of a home.
