Harris CAD has $93 MM to represent county - Who is representing you?While 100% of multifamily value was protested in 2021 and 88% of commercial BPP was protested, only about 39% of Harris County homeowners appeal. You deserve to have someone representing you unless you are appealing on your own. Owners can successfully appeal, but most who do don't appeal annually. Appealing annually is important because the tax appeal process is uncertain due to the human element. Some years appeals exceed expectations while other years are disappointing. We will suit up and show up annually to represent your interests, regardless of your property value. Enroll in the Property Tax Protection Program today. No flat fees. No upfront cost.
