If you’re a homeowner in Texas, there’s a deadline you cannot ignore.

Your right to protest your property’s appraised value is limited, and missing it can cost you money for the entire year.
 

Your Most Important Tip

Your exact deadline is printed on your Notice of Appraised Value.

That date is the one that matters—don’t rely on general rules.

 

What To Do Now
Review your appraised value carefully

Compare it with recent comps in your neighborhood

Gather photos and condition notes of your home

File your protest early online to avoid last-minute stress

 

Protesting your appraised value is one of the few ways you can directly influence your property taxes.

If you want a quick review of your home’s value vs. the market, I’m happy to help. Don’t wait—your deadline is right around the corner.

Even if you think your value looks fair, a quick double-check could save money—sometimes the differences aren’t obvious until you compare comps or home condition notes.
