Appraisal district errors in setting assessed values cause Harris County owners to pay extra taxes. A market value appeal is based on the assessor’s value exceeding the market value of your home. You can reduce your property taxes with an unequal appraisal appeal. Property tax appeals are often won with a smile and a bit of data.
Owners are sometimes reluctant to protest property taxes due to a concern their value might be raised. This can’t and does not happen. Since 2019, neither the appraisal district or the appraisal review board can increase a property tax assessment during a protest. It is impossible for 2,272 Texas appraisal district appraisers to track physical condition and value for over 20 million properties. 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.
