How a property tax protest works
- Your appraisal district mails a notice of appraised value in the spring.
- You or your agent file a protest by May 15, or 30 days after the notice is mailed, whichever is later.
- The protest compares your value with similar properties (equal and uniform) and with recent sales (market value).
- Most protests settle at an informal meeting with the appraiser; the rest go to the Appraisal Review Board.
