How to Protest Your Property Taxes

by Texas REALTORS® Staff

It’s property-tax season in Texas, and if you disagree with the valuation of your property, you have the right to protest. The standard deadline to file a protest is May 15 or no later than the 30th day after your notice of appraised value was mailed to you.

The Texas Real Estate Research Center published a guide covering the do’s and don’ts for a successful protest, plus other useful tips

One of the key points: “Do gather market evidence. Focus on sales of similar properties that occurred as close to January 1 as possible.”

A REALTOR® can provide that sales data as well as help you navigate the protest process. Find one at texasrealestate.com.
