Appraisal district errors in setting assessed values cause Guadalupe County owners to pay extra taxes. One option to reduce your property taxes is to protest the market value. You can reduce your property taxes with an unequal appraisal appeal. Property tax appeals are often won with a smile and a bit of data. 

Some homeowners believe “you can’t fight city hall.”  But property owners win 60 to 80% of property tax appeals. It is impossible for 2,272 Texas appraisal district appraisers to track physical condition and value for over 20 million properties. One reason appraisal districts are motivated to settle protests is to maintain goodwill with the community. Property owners who appeal annually rarely pay more than their fair share.
