Meeting Texas Growth

Mr. Bukowski has spent much of his career supporting high density urban development to meet the massive growth in Texas and significant housing needs. Between his weekly blog, his Greater Texas podcast, and his support for clients who share his vision, Mr. Bukowski is an advocate for responsible, rapid urban growth. As a result, he can speak about:
  • How density can help meet Texas’s housing needs; 
  • How city councils can help promote dense, urban growth; 
  • Specific regulations that need to be changed, including compatibility, minimum lot size, restrictions on ADUs, etc. and
  • The building obstacles that stand in the way of developers.
Mr. Bukowski believes strongly in the need for dense, urban development and would make an excellent speaker to folks with similar or opposing beliefs.

Property Taxes

With Bukowski Law Firm, Mr. Bukowski has been protesting property taxes for commercial properties for at least 12 years. As a result, he has become an expert in the ins and outs of informal and formal protests. He can speak about the following topics:
  • Protesting both the market value and on an equal and uniform basis; 
  • Preparing data for protests, including appraisals; 
  • Working with appraisal districts and responding to their objections; 
  • Preparing and presenting a case before the appraisal panel; and
  • Options for the property owner if the protest is not successful.
All Texas property owners need to protesting their appraised values. And Mr. Bukowski can speak to them about the ins and outs of the process and how to protect their investment.

Need a guest for your SHOW?

Mr. Bukowski has been practicing law since November 2021. But he had his sights set on becoming a lawyer long before that. Ever since reading about the noble and heroic Atticus Finch in To Kill a Mockingbird as a teen, Sean knew the law was for him. And he has turned that desire into helping real estate investors realize their dreams and protect their investments.

When not practicing law, Mr. Bukowski is a rabid University of Michigan sports fans. He regularly travels to attend football and basketball games featuring his beloved Wolverines. He is also very active in the Central Texas social scene – regularly attending music and other performances at theaters around town. Mr. Bukowski is also an avid traveler – though that was interrupted by COVID.

Mr. Bukowski looks forward to speaking with you about any of his varied experiences.
