Dallas County Tax Protests are heard by the Dallas County Appraisal Review Board. They represent themselves as "separate and apart" from Dallas CAD but receive payroll checks from Dallas CAD. Is it fair to ask someone to be impartial when one of the parties pays their salary? Dallas Central Appraisal District staff are instrumental in scheduling both informal and formal (appraisal review board) protests.

Large owners have a tax consultant. Do You?

Large owners understand property taxes and the vast majority hire third party consultants to appeal their property taxes. Some Fortune 500 firms have inhouse experts but likely 95% of commercial property owners hire a property tax consultant to appeal their property taxes. The reasons are simple: 1) property taxes are a huge expense and 2) recent increases in taxable value have been huge, and 3) most property tax appeals are successful. Home owners save 29% and commercial owners save 72% in 2020.
