One flat fee covers the entire protest process — no surprises, no percentage cuts.
Texas homeowners pay some of the highest property taxes in the nation — but you have the legal right to protest every year.
Texas appraisal districts mail Notices of Appraised Value between April and May. This notice contains the county's estimate of your property's market value as of January 1st. Under Texas Tax Code §25.19, this value directly determines your property tax bill.
Texas Tax Code §41.41 guarantees every property owner the right to protest. You can challenge your property's appraised value, unequal appraisal compared to similar properties, or exemption denials. This right exists regardless of whether your value went up, down, or stayed the same.
Under Texas Tax Code §41.43, you can present evidence that your property's value exceeds its fair market value based on comparable sales. TaxAppeal analyzes 2.1M+ recent transactions to find properties similar to yours that sold for less — proving your assessment is too high.
The protest deadline is May 15 or 30 days after your Notice of Appraised Value was mailed, whichever is later. TaxAppeal files your protest via USPS certified mail with return receipt — providing legal proof your protest was received before the deadline.
The vast majority of property tax protests in Texas result in a reduction. County appraisal districts know their mass-appraisal methods contain errors, and a well-documented protest with comparable sales evidence is hard to deny.
Most Texas protest firms take 25–50% of your savings. Here's how TaxAppeal compares.
On a $2,000 annual reduction, you'd pay $500–$1,000 in fees — every single year.
Same $2,000 reduction — you pay $79 once and keep $1,921. Every year after that, the savings are 100% yours.
Real results from Texas homeowners who filed with TaxAppeal.
"I'd been paying too much for years. TaxAppeal put together the comparable sales data and filed everything for me. Got my reduction on the first try — best $79 I've spent."
"The process was so simple. I entered my address, paid $79, and a few weeks later got a letter from HCAD saying my value was reduced. I'll do this every year."
"Other protest companies wanted 30% of my savings. On a $2,400 reduction that's $720 a year in fees forever. TaxAppeal charged $79 once. Easy decision."
