Appraisal district errors in setting assessed values cause Dallas County owners to pay extra taxes. A market value appeal is based on the assessor’s value exceeding the market value of your home. Check the unequal appraisal box on the protest form, or your unequal appraisal appeal will be ignored. Winning a property tax protest is easy. Getting property owners to appeal is hard. Only 10% of Texan home owners appeal their property taxes.
Some homeowners believe “you can’t fight city hall.” But property owners win 60 to 80% of property tax appeals. Mass appraisal models make it impossible for appraisal districts to accurately value most houses. One reason appraisal districts are motivated to settle protests is to maintain goodwill with the community. Protest your property taxes on market value and unequal appraisal by May 15th annually. Protest even if you do not receive a value notice.
