Most homeowners who do not appeal annually pay excess property taxes. Either comparable sales or condition issues at your home are useful for a market value appeal of property taxes. Unequal appraisal is a powerful tool to reduce property taxes, but many homeowners are not aware of it and don’t use it. Property tax appeals are often won with a smile and a bit of data. 

Many owners do not protest because they do not understand the process.  Most would appeal if they know how easy it is to have a high chance of success. Mass appraisal models make it impossible for appraisal districts to accurately value most houses. Appraisal districts are willing to settle property tax appeals because they realize their values are not precise. Appraisal property taxes, yard work and HVAC check-ups are just a few of the responsibilities for homeowners.
