Have you recently received your property tax appraisal and felt like it was too high? The Gregg County Appraisal District is offering tips for protesting property tax rate hikes. According to a recent article, homeowners can protest the appraised value of their property if they feel like it is inaccurate or unfair. The process can be intimidating, but the appraiser suggests being prepared with information about sales prices of comparable properties in your area, as well as documenting any repairs or upgrades made to your home. Additionally, it’s important to understand the appraisal process and ask questions if necessary. With property values on the rise, this information can be crucial for homeowners looking to save money on their taxes. The appraiser also notes that the deadline for filing a protest is May 15th, so don’t delay in taking action.
