Half or more of Texas home owners are paying more than their fair share of property taxes. One option to reduce your property taxes is to protest the market value. You can reduce your property taxes with an unequal appraisal appeal. The Texas Comptroller reports 80% of 2019 property tax appeals by home owners were successful

Some property owners do not appeal due to a concern the appraisal district will want to inspect their house.  However, the appraisal district is MUCH too busy during the appeal season to even think about asking to inspect a property.  Assessors do not visit houses because of appeals.  It is difficult for appraisal districts to accurately value houses due to limited staff.  Appraisal districts are willing to settle property tax appeals because they realize their values are not precise.  Protest your property taxes on market value and unequal appraisal by May 15th annually.  Protest even if you do not receive a value notice.
