Harris County homeowners pay some of the highest property taxes in Texas. We check whether a protest will actually lower your tax bill, after caps and exemptions, before you pay. If it won’t, we’ll tell you, and we won’t sell you one. If it will, we mail you a ready-to-sign protest kit for a flat $89: Form 50-132 filled in, your evidence, and an envelope addressed to HCAD.
Texas gives you the right to protest your appraised value every single year, and Harris County processes more than half a million protested accounts annually. Here's why Houston homeowners have especially strong grounds.
HCAD appraises over 1.7 million properties annually using mass-appraisal methods that frequently contain errors.
Harris County has one of the highest property tax rates in Texas, making a successful protest even more valuable for Houston homeowners.
The Houston metro market saw significant value swings in recent years — meaning many homes are now over-assessed relative to current market conditions.
We prepare your protest and mail it to you with a return envelope addressed to the Harris County Appraisal District. You sign it in ink, add a stamp and mail it. HCAD writes to you directly.
Most Houston property tax firms charge 25-40% of your savings. Here's how TaxAppeal compares.
On a $2,100 reduction, that's $735 in fees — every year.
Pay $89 once and keep every dollar of your $2,100 savings. No annual fees.
Join Houston homeowners saving money every year. $89 flat — no hidden fees, no percentage cuts.
TaxAppeal USA is a self-service document-preparation service. We prepare a ready-to-sign appeal kit and mail it to you; you sign it and mail it to the county yourself. In every state we serve, including Florida, we are not property tax consultants, agents, or representatives, we do not provide tax or legal advice, and we do not file appeals or represent customers before any appraisal district, board of assessors, board of equalization, value adjustment board, or review board. Every appeal, protest and petition is prepared for the property owner, signed by the owner, and mailed by the owner in the owner’s name. In Florida your petition is signed by you as the property owner under section 194.011(3), Florida Statutes, and the county’s Value Adjustment Board filing fee is paid by you directly to the county. TaxAppeal USA does not sign as your representative, does not appear before the Board, and does not present evidence or argument at a hearing.
