Williamson County home owners are often unaware of the factors that cause them to pay extra taxes. A market value appeal is based on the assessor’s value exceeding the market value of your home. The lower value stands when appealing market value and unequal appraisal. Appeal both every year. Appraisal districts are generally very receptive to settling tax appeals at the informal hearing.

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. 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. Protesting your property taxes annually is analogous to regularly changing the oil in your car. Preventative maintenance avoids serious problems.
