Texas imposes no state income tax and caps annual homestead appraisal increases at 10%, but this protection only applies once you file a Homestead Exemption application with the Jefferson County Appraisal District by April 30 of the year following your purchase. The exemption removes a portion of your home's value from school, county, and city tax bills, typically saving homeowners $800–$1,500 annually on a $200K home. Contact the Jefferson County Appraisal District immediately after closing to confirm your exemption status and review your Notice of Appraised Value each spring.
