[@randy74989]

Regarding the Fort Bend County Appraisal District, you can forget about lowering your annual appraisal. I have hired and fired two companies that could not lower our appraisal meaningfully. It is the worst appraisal district in the Houston Area, so you better think twice about that before you buy a home in Fort Bend County. And, they are building houses in Fort Bend County like there is no tomorrow at "high" prices, which will be used against you by the appraisal district appraisers and the appraisal board. In fact, I spoke with a company representative who does property tax protests who lives a few miles from me in Fort Bend County and he could not even get his property tax appraisal reduced, so now you know.

Definitely relocating this year

Has Houston fix their flooding problem?

[@nicoleellisonrealtor]

I’ve lived Houston for 15 years and my home has never flooded. If you live in a flood zone, you will know it and you will have a higher chance of flooding. However, if you don’t live in a flood zone, the chances of your property flooding is very low.

[@TheCollector1985]
