Harris County Appraisal District paid its chief appraiser $270,000 and benefits in 2020. 70 to 80% of Harris County property owners who protest property taxes are successful despite the staff of about 300 appraisers at Harris County Appraisal District. HCAD's appraisers use a process called mass appraisal to generate over 1,800,000 property values annually! The number of valuations is so large relative to the small number of appraisers that property owners can find a basis to successfully appeal their property taxes in most cases. Tax protests saved Harris County owners ~$700 million in 2020.

Small Number Appraisers = Opportunity for Property Owners!

Harris County Appraisal District receives over 400,000 property tax appeals for ~60% of the total value annually. Could they work through the volume of over 400,000 property tax protests if they just tell everyone their value is good and to forget appealing? That would not work because of the huge volume of appraisal review board appeals. Most accounts are settled informally to avoid the time and cost of an appraisal review board hearing.
