Property tax assessments not carefully reviewed lead to paying more than your share of property taxes. Either comparable sales or condition issues at your home are useful for a market value appeal of property taxes. Check the unequal appraisal box on the protest form, or your unequal appraisal appeal will be ignored. The majority who appeal their Texas property taxes are successful.

Many owners do not protest because they do not understand the process. Most would appeal if they know how easy it is the high chance of success. Incorrect property data such as grade, effective year built, condition, etc lead to substantial errors in appraisal district values for houses. Appraisal districts settle appeals at the informal level to avoid the time consuming and expensive appraisal review board hearings. Appraisal property taxes, yard work and HVAC check-ups are just a few of the responsibilities for homeowners.
