Property Tax Relief and the Implications for Title
This session is a must-watch for escrow officers, title agents, and closing professionals navigating property tax prorations in Texas. With the constitutional amendment now passed and the expanded $100,000 homestead exemption in effect, title companies are fielding new questions from clients and making important policy decisions.
In this practical and timely webinar, industry expert Roland Love explains how the Texas Property Tax Relief Act is impacting daily operations. Topics covered include:
• The state’s reallocation of funds to school districts for tax reduction
• Changes in appraisal district tax roll processes and timing
• How compressed tax rates affect proration accuracy
• Key differences in proration handling across common contract forms (TREC, Texas REALTORS®, State Bar)
• Suggestions for setting internal consistency on how your company handles prorations
Whether you're answering customer calls or finalizing a closing file, this session will help you manage tax-related questions with clarity and confidence.

Under Procedural Rule P-28.II.1-6, TDI will not award credit hours for completing the same course more than once per reporting period. Since this course is also approved under a different instruction method (live as a classroom course and on-demand as a classroom equivalent course), credit cannot be granted for both formats if received within the same reporting period.
