Half or more of Texas home owners are paying more than their fair share of property taxes. Protest market value, get a few comparable sales as evidence and you are very likely to reduce your property taxes. Check the unequal appraisal box on the protest form, or your unequal appraisal appeal will be ignored. The Texas Comptroller reports 80% of 2019 property tax appeals by home owners were successful.

Many owners intended to appeal but the May 15th date slipped by with no appeal.  If you want to appeal and it is slipping your mind, consider a consultant. It is difficult for appraisal districts to accurately value houses due to limited staff. One reason appraisal districts are motivated to settle protests is to maintain goodwill with the community. Protect your home by appealing property taxes annually.
