Dallas County Appraisal District Employee Summary – 2022

Dallas Central Appraisal District (CAD) expenses are primarily labor. Dallas CAD has a total of 242 employees, including 102 appraisers as of 2022. The Dallas CAD budget increased from $21 million in 2013 to $31 million in 2022, a 43% increase. The appraisal district is responsible for providing notice of value to owners for 849,818 parcels of real property. A property description, valuation model, comparable sales, or assessment comparative may be appealed since there are few appraisers, and few options for property inspection outside of aerial photography. Property tax appeals save Dallas County owners over $1.077 billion annually.

20% of the yearly property value is appealed by owners of large commercial property. They take this action because, since Dallas CAD was founded in the early 1980s, it has been successful for more than 40 years. Only about 27% of homeowners file an appeal; those with higher property values are more likely to do so.
