La Reserva Federal redujo las tasas de interés en medio punto porcentual el miércoles, iniciando lo que se espera sea una política monetaria más flexible con una reducción mayor de lo habitual en los costos de endeudamiento, tras el creciente malestar sobre la salud del mercado laboral.

We are thrilled to announce that on June 11th, 2023, the Texas House passed House Bill 2 (HB2), a groundbreaking piece of legislation authored by Representative Jodie Laubenberg.

HB2 introduces several key provisions that will positively impact property owners throughout the state. First and foremost, it includes a remarkable reduction in the school district maintenance and operations tax rate.
