Investor Insight Report

Tax Burden: The combined rate across 5 taxing entities is 1.7107% in 2025 (+0.0504% vs 2024 — rates increased ). At the current taxable value, estimated annual taxes are $7,948. Lago Vista ISD is the largest single contributor, at 59.4% of the total 2025 levy.

Assessment Gap: Assessed value ($464,569) is $254,037 below market value, suggesting potential for an upward assessment in future years.

Asset Class: Agricultural. Agricultural valuation may be subject to rollback taxes if land use changes. This is valued using the income approach, so changes in rent roll or occupancy move the appraisal more directly than they would for a cost-approach property.

Estimate only. The appraisal district sets value as of Jan 1 (not at sale price). A sale is strong evidence of market value and is typically reflected in the next Jan 1 valuation. Taxing units set rates annually. Modeled from government data — not a legal or tax opinion.
