Most homeowners who do not appeal annually pay excess property taxes. Protest market value, get a few comparable sales as evidence and you are very likely to 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 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 homes since they rarely or never see the houses. One reason appraisal districts are motivated to settle protests is to maintain goodwill with the community. Protect your home by appealing property taxes annually.
