Property tax assessments not carefully reviewed lead to paying more than your share of property taxes. Protest market value, get a few comparable sales as evidence and you are very likely to reduce your property taxes. You can reduce your property taxes with an unequal appraisal appeal. It is difficult to persuade property owners to protest their property taxes.  But 60 to 80% of those who do are 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 impossible for 2,272 Texas appraisal district appraisers to track physical condition and value for over 20 million properties. Appraisal districts are receptive to settling property tax protests for houses at the informal level because it has only a nominal impact on the total tax base. Protect your home by appealing property taxes annually.
