"Rick Perry wants lawmakers to lower property tax rates by 33 percent in large part by reshaping the corporate franchise tax.

sounds like a plan! stick it to the businessman, don't mention the possibility of a personal income tax!

a real 33% tax cut would probably raise home values a little bit. also it would make rental properties much more attractive."

I think when I checked into Austin (within the city limits and not the outlying areas..) I thought the effective rate was 2%. (With local add ons, bond measures etc..)

They seem to have a building boom in Austin which may depress rental return in the future although there a certain zip codes that are quite popular and don't seem to have much room left for building.
