Appraisal district errors in setting assessed values cause Denton County owners to pay extra taxes. One option to reduce your property taxes is to protest the market value. Unequal appraisal appeals compare the level of assessment of your house to comparable houses typically on a per square foot basis. The Texas Comptroller reports 80% of 2019 property tax appeals by homeowners were successful.

It is impossible for 2272 Texas appraisal district appraisers to track physical condition and value for over 20 million properties. Appraisal districts are willing to settle property tax appeals because they realize their values are not precise. Not appealing your property taxes annually is the equivalent of volunteering to pay extra property taxes.
