How They Can Help

The firm provides comprehensive property tax appeal services starting with detailed assessment reviews to identify overvalued properties. They handle all aspects of formal appeals, from filing initial protests with the appraisal district to representing clients at hearings before the Appraisal Review Board. Commercial property owners receive specialized valuation analysis that examines income approaches, comparable sales, and cost methods to build strong cases. For residential clients, services include homestead exemption verification, market value disputes, and agricultural exemption applications. The team also assists with tax deferral options for seniors and disabled property owners. Additional services encompass property tax planning for new acquisitions, assessment monitoring for portfolio owners, and consultation on tax implications of property improvements. They maintain relationships with certified appraisers and market analysts to ensure appeals are supported by credible valuation evidence.

What to Expect

The process begins with a comprehensive property assessment review where clients provide recent tax statements and property details. The team analyzes current assessments against market data and comparable properties to identify potential savings. If an appeal appears viable, they prepare and file formal protests within required deadlines. Throughout the hearing preparation phase, they gather supporting documentation including appraisals, comparable sales data, and property condition reports. Clients receive regular updates on case progress and strategic decisions. At hearings, experienced attorneys present evidence and advocate for reduced assessments. Post-hearing, they monitor outcomes and handle any necessary follow-up actions or additional appeal levels if initial results prove unsatisfactory.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my property is over-assessed?
Compare your assessed value to recent sales of similar properties in your area. If your assessment exceeds market values by 10% or more, an appeal may be worthwhile.
What's the deadline for filing property tax appeals in Texas?
Most appeals must be filed by May 15th, though extensions may be available in certain circumstances. Early filing is recommended to ensure proper case preparation.
Can I appeal my property taxes every year?
Yes, property owners can file appeals annually if they believe assessments remain excessive. However, repeated appeals without merit may receive less favorable consideration.
What evidence do I need for a successful appeal?
Strong appeals typically include recent comparable sales, professional appraisals, and documentation of property conditions. Market analysis and expert testimony strengthen commercial appeals.
How long does the appeal process take?
Most appeals are resolved within 3-6 months, though complex commercial cases may take longer. Hearing schedules and case complexity affect timelines.
Will appealing my property taxes affect my homestead exemption?
No, property tax appeals don't affect homestead or other exemptions. These are separate issues that can be addressed simultaneously if needed.
What happens if I lose my appeal?
Unsuccessful appeals don't result in penalties, and you can appeal again next year. Some cases may qualify for additional appeal levels or court review.
Should I hire an attorney or handle the appeal myself?
While self-representation is possible, professional representation significantly improves success rates, especially for high-value properties or complex cases.
