Hey, Houston CRE owners, we dodged a bullet! 🚨 It looks like we avoided a hefty property tax increase after the state announced it would deliver $50 million in disaster relief funds to help recover from May’s derecho and July’s Hurricane Beryl 🌪️. For a moment there, commercial property owners were staring down a potential tax rate increase of at least 3.2 cents per $100 of assessed value!
