More than a half-million Bexar County homeowners may be in for more sticker shock. The Bexar County Appraisal District mailed notices and posted them online, showing an average increase of nearly 15%.
– When Teresa Garces opens her mail from the Bexar Appraisal District, she is in for another shocker. Her 1260-square-foot home just shot up in value by 15% on top of last year’s unprecedented jump.“They look like medium-priced homes, but they’re not,” she said. “They’re selling for almost triple the amount that people paid for them.”
“They’re selling for three or four or $500,000, you know, and that’s too much, and that increases our property value,” Cardenas said. Property owners can face higher property tax bills depending on the tax rates set by the various government bodies. If some homes in your neighborhood had improvements and sold at top dollar, that can be reflected in other homes in the community. The time to look at individual properties, he said, is at the appeal.
