Property tax assessments not carefully reviewed lead to paying more than your share of property taxes. Protesting the appraisal district’s market value with usually reduce your property taxes. You can reduce your property taxes with an unequal appraisal appeal. 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. Appraisal districts use mass appraisal to value property, basically a math model. Overall results are OK. However, many homes are too high or low. Most tax protests are settled at the informal level so appraisers can return to measuring and valuing new construction. Not appealing your property taxes annually is the equivalent of volunteering to pay extra property taxes.
