How They Can Help

Our comprehensive property tax services cover every aspect of the appeals process. We conduct thorough property valuations using current market data, comparable sales analysis, and income approaches for commercial properties. For residential clients, we examine assessment accuracy, exemption eligibility, and market value disputes. Commercial property owners benefit from our specialized knowledge of complex valuation methods, including cost and income capitalization approaches. We prepare detailed evidence packages, coordinate with appraisers when needed, and represent clients at appraisal review board hearings. Our team also handles protest filings, deadline management, and all required documentation. Additional services include homestead exemption applications, disability and senior exemptions, agricultural use valuations, and multi-year assessment reviews. We provide ongoing consultation to help property owners understand their annual notices and identify potential issues before they become costly problems.

What to Expect

Getting started is straightforward. Contact us for a free initial consultation where we'll review your property tax notice and identify potential savings opportunities. If we believe your case has merit, we'll conduct a comprehensive property analysis and market research. We handle all paperwork and deadlines, keeping you informed throughout the process. Most residential cases resolve through informal negotiations with the appraisal district. Complex commercial cases may require formal hearings, where we present evidence and advocate for reduced assessments. Our contingency fee structure means you only pay if we achieve savings. We'll provide regular updates and explain each step, ensuring you understand the process and expected outcomes.

Service Area

We serve the greater Houston metropolitan area, including Harris County, Fort Bend County, and Montgomery County. Our primary focus covers Houston, Sugar Land, The Woodlands, Katy, Pearland, and surrounding communities. We're familiar with local appraisal districts, hearing procedures, and market conditions specific to each area. Our extensive knowledge of Houston-area property markets gives us distinct advantages when building cases for tax reductions.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my property taxes are too high?
Compare your assessed value to recent sales of similar properties in your area. If your assessment seems high relative to current market conditions or recent sales, you may have grounds for an appeal.
What's the deadline for filing a property tax appeal in Texas?
You generally have 30 days from when you receive your notice of appraised value. Missing this deadline can eliminate your appeal rights for that tax year.
Do I need to pay my property taxes while the appeal is pending?
Yes, you should pay your taxes by the due date to avoid penalties and interest. Any successful appeal will result in a refund of overpaid amounts.
How much can I expect to save on a successful appeal?
Savings vary widely depending on the property and degree of overassessment. Typical reductions range from 5-30% of the assessed value, translating to hundreds or thousands in annual tax savings.
Will appealing my property taxes trigger an audit or inspection?
Appeals are standard business processes, not audits. The appraisal district may schedule an inspection as part of their review, but this is routine and not punitive.
Can I appeal my property taxes every year?
Yes, you have the right to appeal annually if you believe your assessment is excessive. However, repeated appeals without merit may receive less favorable consideration.
What happens if I disagree with the appraisal review board's decision?
You can pursue further appeals through binding arbitration or district court, depending on your property value. We can advise on the best approach for your situation.
Do you handle appeals in counties outside Harris County?
Yes, we serve Harris, Fort Bend, and Montgomery counties. Each county has different procedures and market conditions that we factor into our appeal strategies.
