Travis County Tax OfficeMay 1, 2023
Real estate investor Nate Paul heads the Travis County Top Ten List of Delinquent Taxpayers, owing more than $1 million in taxes on two properties listed under WC East Avenue LLC, one under WC 5th and Waller LLC and three under 11530 Menchaca Road LLC.
The next highest delinquent taxpayer Encino Broadcasting LLC owes more than $200,000 for its broadcasting towers. The Federal Communications Commission website says Encino’s towers are used for AM radio stations KOKE, KELG and KTXZ.
Elfant personally reaches out to delinquent taxpayers, giving them the opportunity to pay in full or set up a payment plan. “I believe it is my duty to reach out to the top delinquent taxpayers to give them the opportunity to settle their bill,” he said. "So far, 17 delinquent property taxpayers paid in full for a total of more than $2.3 million and 10 entered into agreed payment plans totaling about $1.4 million.”
It would be unfair, Elfant said, to everyone who pays their tax bills to allow the top offenders to skate by. “Everyone has to pay their fair share of taxes and we owe it to the public to let them know who owes the most money and that we will take action to collect or seize and auction off their property.”
Most of the highest delinquent taxpayers own commercial properties.
When property owners do not respond to repeated attempts to contact them by sending letters and making phone calls, the tax office must forward the accounts to the county attorney who files lawsuits against the taxpayer to pay or see the property placed up for public or auction.
“The very last thing we want to do is take away property from their owners, and we offer them every opportunity to set up a payment plan, but they need to talk to us,” Elfant said.
The county and the 149 government entities it collects taxes for pays for emergency services, public schools, courts, law enforcement, parks, road maintenance and other city and county operations. When projected property tax revenue falls short, programs can be cut, or property taxes raised to make up the difference.
The tax office has collected more than 98% of the 2022 property taxes owed but needs to collect more than $116 million in outstanding 2022 debt from property owners.
Homeowners who were financially impacted by the pandemic may qualify for a federal program that can help pay delinquent taxes. Go to www.TexasHomeownerAssistance.com to find out what is required to receive financial relief.
