Half or more of Texas home owners are paying more than their fair share of property taxes. Market value property tax appeals save home owners an average of $500, according to Texas Comptroller Glen Hager, for 2019. Property owners can appeal both market value and unequal appraisal. It is difficult to persuade property owners to protest their property taxes. But 60 to 80% of those who do are successful.
Some homeowners believe “you can’t fight city hall.” But property owners win 60 to 80% of property tax appeals. It is difficult for appraisal districts to accurately value houses due to limited staff.

Protect your home by appealing property taxes annually.
