$15 thousand on a $225 thousand house?

Just damn...I checked on my property taxes, and mine are about $7K per year, taxable value of $275K. My escrow is approaching 50% of my monthly house payment.

Not going down anytime soon, either. Latest Zillow just passed $350K. My area is booming, centrally located between Plano, Las Colinas, downtown Dallas, and Arlington. We're in the Coppell ISD, which is prominently featured on advertisements.

It's too congested for me now, when we move depends on my son, who just started HS. I think he wants to stay four years (we've lived here his entire life), but the competition is fierce in numerous activities. 80+ boys tried out for the freshman basketball team.

evox is right that we’re not getting the full story. In Lake county $15m would equate to about $500m in market value. What he paid for it is irrelevant. Of course other than other democrat urban areas on the coasts that $500m home would be much cheaper.

“We’re in the Coppell ISD”

I live in Lewisville, and work in Las Colinas.

Denton Tap is my thru-way. It’s a nightmare. They need to build some time of multi-layer highway for Denton Tap.

I’m sure your Coppell tax dollars wouldn’t mind paying for that. : )

Count your blessings—the median where I live is $800,000.00.
