Appraisal district errors in setting assessed values cause Midland County owners to pay extra taxes. One option to reduce your property taxes is to protest the market value. The lower value stands when appealing market value and unequal appraisal.  Appeal both every year. The majority who appeal their Texas property taxes are successful.

Some property owners do not appeal due to a concern the appraisal district will want to inspect their house.  However, the appraisal district is MUCH too busy during the appeal season to even think about asking to inspect a property.  Assessors do not visit houses because of appeals. It is difficult for appraisal districts to accurately value houses due to limited staff. Appraisal districts usually settle appeals at the informal hearing since it costs less and takes fewer resources. Appraisal property taxes, yard work and HVAC check-ups are just a few of the responsibilities for homeowners.
