Personal Finance (Not Investing) • Property tax protest in Texas

Sales price has no direct impact on the valuation. Everyone is valued at the same time by the same vendor. You don't get a perverse situation, like in California, where someone is paying $1000/yr because they've lived there for 30 years.
I feel like there is some value to that.

What is one supposed to do when elderly on a fixed income? If the valuation goes up 40% but your income goes up with COLA by 3%, do we just tell the elderly to sell their home of 20-30 years and downsize because they can't afford the taxes?
As I noted, my valuation went up by 40%, but my taxes went up by 1.1% or 1.2%, which was below inflation.
