Homeowners across Texas continue to voice concerns over rising property taxes, and those in Denton County are no different.<\/p>\n
That\u2019s why a North Texas advocate known for helping homeowners protest their appraisals at no cost is bringing his efforts to Denton County for the first time.<\/p>\n
Real estate broker and registered senior property tax consultant Chandler Crouch will help represent homeowners during property tax appraisal hearings Wednesday at 8:30 a.m. at the Denton Central Appraisal District in Denton.<\/p>\n
Crouch, a real estate broker, has spent the past nine years<\/a> assisting homeowners with the property tax protest process, filing more than 200,000 appraisal protests across Texas. He said the hearings provide an important opportunity for property owners to challenge valuations they believe are inaccurate.<\/p>\n \u201cThis is about basic fairness,\u201d said Crouch. \u201cA homeowner should not have to be an expert in appraisal law just to keep the government from overvaluing their house. If the number is wrong, they deserve a chance to get it corrected.\u201d<\/p>\n In addition to representing homeowners during appraisal review board hearings, Crouch has become a prominent advocate for property tax reform in Texas. He has worked alongside state lawmakers on legislation designed to improve transparency, accountability and fairness within the state\u2019s property tax system.<\/p>\n Crouch has also built a large online following by educating homeowners about the appraisal process. His YouTube videos covering topics<\/a> such as appraisal districts, protest strategies, taxpayer rights and proposed reforms have attracted hundreds of thousands of views.<\/p>\n
