Overview

§ 01

Great house in a great neighborhood. Awesome location to get to anything no matter what direction you're going in. This is an awesome deal because the house needs some work including a new roof, flooring and painting. But this house has great bones and is in a great location with a great yard. Tons of living space in this house too! Check it out!

● What this tells you

The §49.452 notice is the only public document that lists a MUD's exact tax rate, outstanding bond debt, and the assessed value used to compute your taxes — direct from the district, not the MLS. If the district is newer or has more bonds outstanding than its neighbors, your effective tax rate will be higher here than just across the street.
