The Dallas County Appraisal District sets the value of residential and commercial property in Dallas County for the purpose of determining property taxes. Sometimes the values that the district assigns are more than they should be, and protesting these valuations can lower the amount of property taxes you pay.
Protesting property taxes in Dallas County is your right as a property owner. Learn more about what you could pay in property taxes and steps you can take to reduce what you owe.

Estimating Property Taxes in Dallas County
Property taxes are calculated based on assessed value each year. Rates vary based on the taxing entities associated with each property, including the city, school, and water district. Due to taxing entity boundaries, one property can be taxed differently than its neighbor.
For the reasons above, we use a 2.5% tax rate when estimating property taxes with clients. A Dallas County resident with a $1 million home in Highland Park, could pay $25,000 when accounting for taxes from Highland Park city, school district tax rates, and other Dallas County taxing entities. Note that this is just an estimate and does not account for tax exemptions, taxing entity boundaries, etc.
If you are a homeowner in Dallas County, learn more about tax rates and exemptions on the Dallas Central Appraisal District website.

How to Protest Property Taxes in Dallas County
To protest your property taxes, complete a Notice of Protest Form (Form 50-132), which will outline your reasons for protesting. Make sure to submit this form to the Appraisal Review Board (ARB) before the Texas property tax appeal deadline, which is May 15 or no later than 30 days after the Dallas County Appraisal District sent their appraisal letter to you.
As you prepare for your hearing, you will need to gather any information that supports your claim that your property is overvalued by the appraisal district. This may include blueprints, photos, engineering reports, statements from an independent appraiser, or other documentation that will reflect your property’s value.
Contact NTPTS for the best chance at receiving a lower assessed value in Dallas County. Our tax consultants can handle your property tax protest from start to finish.
