Montgomery County Central Appraisal District – 2021

Montgomery CAD property tax protests are reviewed by the appraisal review board. Even though they're considered "separate and apart" from Montgomery CAD, CAD still signs the review board's checks. Does that seem fair to you? Property tax savings from these hearings and from informal settlements totaled $98 M in 2021; $31 M came from the hearings.

These review board hearings generate tens of millions of dollars in savings; over 68% of these protests resulted in savings. Homeowners actually won 72% of their protests that went to the review board, while only 50% of commercial properties were successful. Large commercial owners know that they need to appeal every year to consistently save. 94% of apartment owners and 85% of commercial owners appealed in 2021 compared to 26% of homeowners.
