Appraisal district errors in setting assessed values cause Williamson County owners to pay extra taxes. Appraisal districts are flexible on market value appeals given the large number of houses they value and that are protested. Check the unequal appraisal box on the protest form, or your unequal appraisal appeal will be ignored. Property tax appeals are often won with a smile and a bit of data.

Some homeowners do not appeal property taxes because they are not aware of this right. You can and should protest both market value and unequal appraisal annually. It is impossible for 2,272 Texas appraisal district appraisers to track physical condition and value for over 20 million properties. One reason appraisal districts are motivated to settle protests is to maintain goodwill with the community. Property owners have a duty and responsibility to appraisal property taxes annually. It is not prudent or reasonable to rely on the appraisal district’s estimate.
