Why Texas PITI Requires Scientific Modeling

Unlike other states, your monthly Texas mortgage payment is heavily dictated by property tax jurisdictions (MUD vs PID bonds) and coastal windstorm certifications (TWIA WPI-8). The Legacy Group models these line items before you write an offer—saving you hundreds per month in unbudgeted escrow surprises.

TAX CODE INSIGHT

Texas Homestead Exemption

Texas primary homeowners receive a $100,000 exemption on school district property tax valuations, along with a 10% annual appraisal cap. Our advisors help you file this upon closing.

DEVELOPMENT BONDS

MUD & PID Trajectories

Master-planned communities like Lago Mar, Meridiana, and Pomona feature Municipal Utility District bonds. As rooftops fill, MUD rates routinely decrease over time.

COASTAL HAZARD

TWIA Windstorm & WPI-8

For coastal enclaves in Clear Lake, Kemah, and Galveston, Dr. Charles Lehnhoff audits structural elevation and WPI-8 building certificates to minimize insurance premiums.
