10 — MELISSA’S PRO TIPS
Buying in Manor?Check these first.
Look at the high city tax rate, MUDs and PIDs, and fast growth together. Five things to confirm before you sign.
Melissa Jung, REALTOR®
PRO TIP
The city tax rate runs high. Manor’s city rate is $0.8475 — about twice Leander’s or Georgetown’s. Compare total tax rates.
PRO TIP
Check for MUDs and PIDs. Parts of ShadowGlen are in Wilbarger Creek MUD, and RoseHill, Newhaven and Mustang Valley have PIDs.
PRO TIP
Manor ISD bond vote on Nov. 3. A $390M bond (new elementary school, repairs) is on the ballot. The 2025 bond failed.
PRO TIP
Fast growth and traffic. Population grew about 69% from 2020 to 2025. FM 973 is planned to widen to six lanes between SH 130 and US 290.
PRO TIP
Near creeks, check flooding. Areas along Wilbarger and Gilleland creeks carry flood risk. Check flood maps by address.
