Property Tax Myths

  • It doesn't make sense to appeal my property taxes if my property is assessed for less than market value.
    Not true. Using unequal appraisal, our property tax consultants can probably reduce your Dallas property taxes even if your assessed value is below market value. Unequal appraisal compares the assessed value (market value set by appraisal district) of your property to the assessed value of similar properties. O'Connor & Associates is the market leader in developing and presenting unequal appraisal appeals. Our property tax consultants use proprietary computer programs, banks of server computers and massive databases to search for Dallas assessment comparables which document a lower assessed value for your property. Many, if not most, property tax appeals focus on unequal appraisal instead of market value.
  • It's not worthwhile to appeal.
    Not true. Our property tax consultants save homeowners an average of $450 and commercial property owners an average of $6,000 in Harris County, and other counties.
  • Isn't it risky to appeal Dallas property taxes? What is the downside?
    Most property tax appeals are successful and the value cannot be increased at the informal hearing, where most accounts are settled. The assessed value rarely increases at the ARB.
  • The appraisal district will retaliate if I protest.
    No. We filed over 120,000 appeals in 2007. The Collin Appraisal District is too busy processing protests and valuing property to retaliate.
  • Will the appraisal district inspect my house?
    Not unless you tell the appraisal district that your house is smaller than they indicate and they need to measure it. The appraisal district is very busy during the property tax appeal season and simply does not have the staffing to measure thousands of houses.
  • I don't have time to appeal!
    Just call O'Connor & Associates. After a three-minute phone call, our property tax consultants and support staff will handle your appeal.
