All five state constitutional amendments Texas REALTORS® supported in the November statewide election passed by wide margins.

“This is a great day for Texas real estate,” said 2023 Texas REALTORS® Chairman Marcus Phipps. “We proudly supported these measures, which protect private-property rights, shore up the state’s infrastructure, and save Texans thousands of dollars on property taxes. We commend the Texas Legislature for getting these issues on the ballot, and we are glad the voters agreed.”

Just over 2.5 million of the state’s 17.7 million voters cast ballots, which puts turnout at about 14.4%.

Texas REALTORS® remained neutral on the other nine propositions on the ballot. Here’s how REALTOR®-supported amendments did by the numbers:

  • Proposition 1 – the right to engage in farming. Passed: 79.03%
  • Proposition 4 – property tax savings. Passed: 83.43%
  • Proposition 6 – funds for water projects. Passed: 77.64%
  • Proposition 7 – creating the Texas energy fund. Passed: 64.92%
  • Proposition 8 – creating the broadband infrastructure fund. Passed: 69.45%
