How They Can Help

We handle comprehensive property tax appeals from start to finish. Our residential services include homestead exemption applications, market value challenges, and protest filings with the appraisal review board. For commercial clients, we conduct detailed valuation analyses, prepare income and cost approach studies, and represent properties before local boards and state agencies. Our assessment review process examines your property's current valuation against comparable sales, rental rates, and replacement costs. We identify valuation errors, unequal appraisals, and excessive assessments that could be costing you thousands annually. Additional services include exemption consulting for agricultural, charitable, and disabled veteran properties, plus ongoing monitoring of your property's assessed value to catch increases early.

What to Expect

Your appeal starts with our free property evaluation where we analyze your current assessment against market data. If we identify potential savings, we'll discuss our contingency fee structure and begin gathering evidence. We handle all paperwork and deadlines, from filing initial protests to preparing detailed evidence packages. Our team represents you at appraisal review board hearings, presenting professional appraisals and market analyses. If needed, we'll pursue your case through binding arbitration or district court. Throughout the process, you'll receive regular updates on our progress and strategy.

Service Area

We serve all of Collin County, including Plano, Frisco, McKinney, Allen, and Richardson. Our team also handles select cases in Dallas, Denton, and Tarrant counties for commercial properties over $2 million in assessed value. Our local focus means we understand each appraisal district's practices, know the board members, and have established relationships that benefit our clients.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my property is overvalued?
Compare your assessed value to recent sales of similar properties in your neighborhood. If your assessment is 10-15% higher than comparable sales, you may have grounds for an appeal.
What's the deadline for filing a property tax protest?
In Texas, you must file by May 15th or within 30 days of receiving your notice, whichever is later. Missing this deadline means waiting until the following year.
Will appealing my property taxes trigger an audit or closer scrutiny?
No, filing an appeal is your legal right and won't result in additional scrutiny. Appraisal districts expect a certain percentage of appeals each year.
Can my property taxes go up as a result of an appeal?
Texas law prohibits increasing your assessment during an appeal unless you request it or significant improvements were missed. Your taxes can only stay the same or decrease.
How much can I expect to save on a successful appeal?
Successful appeals typically result in 10-30% reductions in assessed value. For a $400,000 home, this could mean $800-$2,400 in annual tax savings.
Do I need a professional appraisal to appeal my property taxes?
Not always. Strong comparable sales data can be sufficient for residential properties, though commercial appeals often benefit from professional appraisals.
What happens if I disagree with the appraisal review board's decision?
You can pursue binding arbitration for properties under $5 million or file suit in district court. We handle both options depending on your case specifics.
How long do property tax reductions last?
Reductions apply to the current tax year only. However, lower assessments often carry forward, and we can file new appeals if values increase unreasonably in future years.
