A property tax protest in Texas is the legal process that allows property owners to challenge the assessed value determined by their local appraisal district. If a property is overvalued, owners may be paying more in taxes than necessary. Filing a protest helps ensure your assessment reflects true market value and complies with Texas property tax laws.
All Texas property owners have the right to protest annually, including homeowners, commercial property owners, industrial facilities, and businesses with personal property. Eligibility applies regardless of property size or value, as long as the assessment appears inaccurate or inequitable.
We represent a wide range of properties across Texas, including residential homes, commercial buildings, industrial facilities, and Business Personal Property (BPP). Our team tailors valuation strategies based on property type and county-specific appraisal practices.
We serve property owners statewide, with a strong local presence and experience in Bell County, Williamson County, Travis County, Bexar County, Montgomery County, Coryell County, McLennan County, Nueces County, and Harris County, as well as surrounding areas.
In most cases, no. We handle the protest process on your behalf, including documentation, negotiations, and hearings with the Appraisal Review Board (ARB). Our goal is to minimize disruption while protecting your interests.
We conduct a comprehensive valuation review using local market data, comparable properties, appraisal district records, and property-specific factors. This data-driven approach allows us to identify errors, inconsistencies, or inequities in the assessed value.
Business Personal Property tax applies to tangible business assets such as equipment, furniture, machinery, and inventory. These assets are reassessed annually and frequently overvalued, making professional BPP tax consulting essential for Texas businesses.
