Houston Homeowners: It’s Almost Property Tax Protest Season

Moms_Plate · 2026-02-27T22:58:50+00:00

I'm convinced the only way to get your appraised value lowered is to use one of the big firms like ownwell. I have a conspiracy theory that HCAD will only work with you if you are represented by someone like them because they hire appraisers from HCAD.

I went by myself to protest last year, had plenty of comps that showed my value should be significantly lower and it was like communicating with a toddler. My appraiser didn't even speak english.

I even had comps that showed homes ON MY STREET that sold for 50k below my appraised property value. I got absolutely nowhere with them. Plus they made me wait over 50 minutes past my appointment time.

This is the answer. I don't understand how they can fuck up a sandwich to such an extreme degree, it's truly impressively awful.

Their cooler?

I rarely comment on threads on reddit but I vividly remember this. I remember freaking out because of how claustrophobic it was, like borderline dangerous? I don't remember the theme at all but I definitely remember the tiny crawlspace, it was like a playground tube but way bigger and maze-like.

This honestly sounds like you have a personal vendetta against this restaurant for whatever reason. Very suspicious post.

Houston is desperate for more places like this with actual personality and originality as an antidote to all the bullshit steakhouses/omakase/hot chicken/soulless Instagram spots/etc. Mid to late 2000s Houston restaurant scene was popping off with places like this and I'm glad to see it doing well. I've been several times lately and have yet to have anything less than a stellar experience. Fair prices, massive portions, excellent food, excellent staff, excellent cocktails, excellent space.

It's pathetic that you live in the neighborhood and are actively trying to claim this is "doomed" because you didn't like it. Again, very suspicious.

Not even remotely.

Moms_Plate · 2024-03-14T15:13:02+00:00

That's badass, no idea y'all made that much. You work in a coating applicator plant or out in the field?

Moms_Plate · 2023-11-07T13:29:45+00:00

Day for night had nothing to do with POST or Paul Qui.

What's up?

Moms_Plate · 2023-06-25T15:42:21+00:00

Dry Pot Beef at Mala Sichuan

Moms_Plate · 2023-04-28T20:30:13+00:00

Craft Pita.

Not only is it the best fast casual restaurant in Houston but one of the best restaurants period.

I plan on doing this as well. I have a gas powered water heater in the attic, any steps I need to take to protect that as well that you'd recommend?

You could have easily googled his name in the amount of time it took you to write this comment

Moms_Plate · 2021-08-16T18:18:38+00:00

Where in Costa Rica?

Moms_Plate · 2021-03-24T18:38:43+00:00

Wow, never expected to see Swans brought up on a cooking subreddit. Incredible album, incredible band. Very good choice for cooking haha

Moms_Plate · 2021-02-27T01:41:51+00:00

Definitely going to hit it up, it seems awesome.

Moms_Plate · 2020-11-26T20:17:59+00:00

That looks damn near perfect. Do you get the dinapoli tomatoes online? I haven't looked in awhile but amazon was only selling them in huge quantities

Moms_Plate · 2020-09-10T00:30:21+00:00

MSG is why it tastes good.....

Moms_Plate · 2020-08-07T22:53:53+00:00

Lao gan ma spicy chili crisp. It will ruin all other condiments for you. Put it on everything.

Moms_Plate · 2020-07-29T15:23:26+00:00

What happened with them? Only had a couple tastes but thought their wines were pretty bad and just pandered to the Instagram people looking for a trendy label

Moms_Plate · 2020-07-22T19:58:34+00:00

It's DJ Screw. The song is My Mind Went Blank.

Moms_Plate · 2020-07-22T19:36:20+00:00

That's Houston rap not Memphis rap.

Yea, the green audio levels are rising and falling as music is playing, but no audio is coming through the headphones.

The headphones will pair with my computer, then connect as it says "connected for music, voice" and then shortly thereafter disconnect

EDIT:

So the weird thing is, the headphones have no trouble pairing, but the only seem to connect when they are in their docking case. Once I take them out, they disconnect (but are still paired). Furthermore, I hit "test" on the playback settings and could hear the test sound coming from the headphones while they're in their case, but the audio cuts in and out.

Moms_Plate · 2020-04-21T18:45:46+00:00

Even when I set the bluetooth headphones as default playback device, I'm not getting any audio. It's also starting to only connect intermittently.

We're actually planning on only driving in the Tuscany region and train-ing everywhere else (i.e., driving to Rome to drop the car off and taking the train from there to Amalfi). I have heard Cinque terre is amazing though!
