In The News

Record-breaking month for pollen. And we’re feeling it.

If anyone else feels like there is an obnoxiously large layer of pollen covering, well, everything— it may help to know that Houston oak pollen has had a record-breaking month for March. The stats are quite wild, you can read more about it here.

Property tax appraisal notices are coming soon

Appraisal districts typically send out property value notices starting in April, so March is a good time to review last year’s valuation and start gathering documentation if you plan to protest your appraisal. Rising property values in Texas can increase your tax bill. Protesting early can save hundreds or even thousands.

STAAR testing is about to kick off

Another April happening is the start of STAAR testing. Testing windows are from April 8 and can go as late as May 2nd. You can see the full testing calendar here.
