Brazoria CAD has $1 Billion to Represent Tax Entities - Who is Representing You?

While ~95% of commercial and apartment property value is protested annually, only about 36% of Brazoria County homeowners appeal each year. Not protesting is voluntarily accepting the initial guesstimate of value set by Brazoria County Appraisal District. This initial value is generated using mass appraisal models with imperfect data and a flawed model (depreciation is not accounted for correctly).

Can You Afford a Property Tax Consultant?

Yes, I would argue you can’t afford not to have a property tax consultant for Brazoria County property. Most values are increased with the imperfect mass appraisal model every year. This has been the practice for 20+ years. Most Brazoria County tax parcels are increased every year. 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.
