These sites give general information about areas which may be of the interest to the
tax deed investor. I like the second link very much because it puts
everything from local insurance companies to city information all in one place:
Local Property Tax Information
This link contains detailed information on the Texas property tax system with links to the tax code. If you would like to learn more about what takes before a tax suit is filed you should review this site.
State
and Local Government on the Net-Texas
This
is a great website that basically puts all
cities, counties, government offices, agencies in on on website (or I should say
it puts their links in one place). It is slightly similar to what we have
done here, but has city information and other private services, such as
attorney's and insurance professionals. (Insurance is an important item
for tax deed properties).
