Tarrant County property investors far too often pay excess property taxes. Most market value protests are successful, typically saving the owner hundreds or thousands of dollars. Unequal appraisal appeals are valid when the assessment is below market value. It is difficult to persuade property owners to protest their property taxes.  But 60 to 80% of those who do are successful.

Some homeowners believe “you can’t fight city hall.”  But property owners win 60 to 80% of property tax appeals. It is difficult for appraisal districts to accurately value houses due to limited staff. Appraisal districts usually settle appeals at the informal hearing since it costs less and takes fewer resources. Protest your property taxes on market value and unequal appraisal by May 15th annually.  Protest even if you do not receive a value notice.
