Hegwood Group

Hegwood Group specializes in property tax reduction services for Dallas-area homeowners and commercial property owners. With years of experience in Texas property tax law, they focus exclusively on helping clients reduce their annual tax burden through strategic assessment appeals and valuation analysis. The firm handles both residential and commercial property tax protests, working directly with appraisal districts to challenge overvaluations. Their team understands the complexities of Dallas County's assessment process and maintains current knowledge of local market conditions to build compelling cases for tax reduction.

The company offers comprehensive property tax appeal services starting with detailed property assessments and market analysis. They review your current tax assessment, compare it to similar properties, and identify potential grounds for reduction. Their residential services cover single-family homes, condominiums, and investment properties throughout Dallas County. For commercial clients, they handle office buildings, retail spaces, industrial properties, and multi-family complexes. The team prepares and files formal protests with the appraisal district, presents evidence at hearings, and negotiates settlements when appropriate. They also provide ongoing monitoring services to catch assessment increases early and maintain records for future appeals. Additional services include exemption applications for qualified properties and consultation on property tax implications for new acquisitions or developments.

The process begins with a free consultation where they review your property tax statement and assess potential for reduction. If they accept your case, they'll conduct a detailed property inspection and gather comparable sales data. Next, they prepare and file your protest with the Dallas Central Appraisal District before the May deadline. They handle all communication with the appraisal district and prepare evidence packages for informal and formal hearings. If your case goes to hearing, they'll represent you before the Appraisal Review Board. Throughout the process, they keep you informed of progress and strategy decisions. Most cases resolve within 3-6 months of filing.

Hegwood Group serves all of Dallas County, including Dallas, Richardson, Plano, Garland, Irving, Mesquite, and surrounding communities. They're familiar with the Dallas Central Appraisal District's procedures and maintain relationships with local appraisers and hearing officers. The firm also handles select cases in adjacent counties including Collin, Denton, and Tarrant counties for existing clients with multiple properties.
