Property tax bills tend to be higher in Texas than in other states. Many homeowners pay the amount listed on their bill, but Texans have a constitutional right to protest if they think their property has been overassessed. Homeowners have only days until the May 15 deadline to file the paperwork needed to challenge their property tax bill before the Appraisal Review Board.
TX Tax uses publicly available data and vital information gathered by journalists through deep reporting and extensive interviews with local appraisal districts, appraisers, and technical staff to help you attempt to lower your property tax bill. Property owners in Harris, Fort Bend, Montgomery, Dallas, Bexar, and Travis counties can use TX Tax to view the official county data for their address and review its assessed value.
TX Tax is designed to help you gather and organize information related to property values using publicly available property data, comparable property information, and generative AI. These materials are informational in nature and the use of TX Tax does not guarantee any particular result. TX Tax is not a licensed, certified, or registered real estate appraiser, accountant, attorney or property tax consultant. Nothing presented or generated by TX Tax constitutes advice (legal or otherwise) concerning the property tax appeal process, preparation of any document relating to a property tax appeal or appearance at a property tax appeal hearing. You must prepare and submit your filings and represent yourself at any hearing. Outputs depend on the information you provide, which you should ensure is accurate. Information entered may be accessible to OpenAI. While care has been taken to present accurate home value information, the accuracy of the data used in the tool is not guaranteed; all data is provided by the respective appraisal district and presented “AS IS”.
