Bexar County property investors far too often pay excess property taxes. Appraisal districts are flexible on market value appeals given the large number of houses they value and that are protested. Check the unequal appraisal box on the protest form, or your unequal appraisal appeal will be ignored. Property tax appeals are often won with a smile and a bit of data.

Many owners do not protest because they do not understand the process.  Most would appeal if they know how easy it is the high chance of success. Mass appraisal models make it impossible for appraisal districts to accurately value most houses. Appraisal districts aggressively settle appeals since they have only 65 days to settle most of the appeals. Protest your property taxes on market value and unequal appraisal by May 15th annually.  Protest even if you do not receive a value notice.
