Check at the address, not the town name

• Check the county assigned to the actual parcel before retrieving appraisal or deed records.
• Use the city planning and adopted-ordinance resources to check requirements for improvements or a change of use.
• School attendance zones, flood risk, HOA obligations, utilities and property taxes follow the exact address. Use current records: TEA school district locator, FEMA flood maps, county appraisal districts.
