Tax Exemptions For Your Land:

Wildlife Exemption

A wildlife exemption in Texas provides landowners with a unique opportunity to reduce property taxes while managing land for the benefit of native wildlife. By shifting from traditional agricultural activities to wildlife management, landowners can enjoy the same tax advantages while supporting conservation efforts. Qualifying for this special valuation involves actively managing the land to support indigenous wildlife populations and meeting specific eligibility criteria. Our experts are here to help you navigate the complexities of this process, ensuring your property is well-managed and meets all requirements for the wildlife exemption.

Agricultural Exemption

An agricultural ("ag") exemption in Texas offers significant property tax savings by allowing land to be taxed based on its agricultural production value rather than its market value. This special valuation is ideal for landowners actively using their property for activities like raising livestock, growing crops, or managing timber. Qualifying for an ag exemption involves meeting specific criteria, including minimum acreage and intensity of use, which can vary by county. Our team of professionals can guide you through the process, ensuring your property meets all requirements and maximizing your tax benefits.
