Texas Property Tax Exemptions: The Savings You Might Be Missing with Dawn Walior and Trudie Nguyen

In this episode, Dawn Walior and Trudie Nguyen walk us through the most commonly missed property tax exemptions in Texas — and how they can translate into significant savings for your business. From the Freeport exemption to pollution control and the newer biomedical exemption, learn what you may be leaving on the table, how to apply, and the critical deadlines you need to know. Plus, an important warning about recent changes to USPS mail processing that could affect your filings.Key Takeaways:- The Freeport exemption is one of the most frequently missed opportunities — even if you think your inventory doesn't qualify, it's worth a closer look.- Inventory that ships to a local Texas client may still qualify for Freeport if that client ships it out of state within 175 days.- You can choose a September 1 inventory valuation date instead of January 1 — a smart move if your inventory is lower in the fall.- Pollution control exemptions apply more broadly than most people realize — any equipment required to meet regulatory standards may qualify, and the exemption lasts as long as you own the equipment.- The biomedical exemption is relatively new and exempts machinery, equipment, and finished goods for biomedical companies.- There are no application fees for filing exemptions with the appraisal district. The only fee is for TCEQ pollution control use-of-determination reviews.- New legislative change: if you extend your rendition deadline to May 15, your Freeport exemption application is now automatically extended to May 15 as well.Resources:Visit www.itctax.com for questions about Texas property tax exemptions and compliance.#PropertyTax #TexasTax #FreeportExemption #PollutionControl #BiomedicalExemption #TaxCompliance #ITCTax #TaxExemptions #TexasBusiness #PropertyTaxSavings #TaxDeadlines #InventoryTaxMentioned in this episode:Optimize Your Property Tax!ITC Tax
