People love to not include property tax when pushing these narratives.

- bilbo0s 5y agoThe Texas property tax thing is no joke. If you're not from a high property tax state, coming into Texas can be a bit of a jolt. I do think there are states out there with higher property taxes? Those are the people who might find Texas property "cheap". Texas definitely has a lot of "gotchas" that you need to be ready for.
