Appraisal districts use Mass Appraisal theory. The Mass Appraisal Process is used to value large numbers of properties as of January 1, the appraisal date for each year. Standardized procedures are used when collecting property data, analyzing data, and applying the results to determine the proposed values. Our experience shows us that appraisal districts often ignore data that would result in a lower valuation than the proposed value. The appraisal district is often under pressure from the local taxing jurisdictions to produce a higher tax roll, so jurisdictions do not have to raise tax rates.

We look at all the evidence available, and bring to light evidence that supports a lower valuation for your property. We protest aggressively to attain the lowest value on your property with all evidence considered. If we can not agree with the CAD, the appraisal review board will determine a value after evidence from both sides is presented. The ARB value can be appealed in District Court.
