Normally if you don’t pay RE taxes,...

In Texas if you are over 65 and you do not pay your property tax, Texas cannot take your property.

The tax accrues with interest until you die or sell the property.

This tidbit came out in a meeting from an appraisal representative of TX at a community meeting.

Let me throw a straw-man comment here- If I stopped paying property taxes at age 65, and lived for 40 more years, my property could be in arrears so far that nobody would be able to afford to pay the back taxes.
