Coryell County Appraisal District is responsible for accurately valuing the houses in Coryell County.  Overall, the average, or an ideal fair market value, should be extremely close to 100%. This is also called the median. The median is what defines the middle value. In real estate, this value is what the other market values compare to. The houses might be above or below the median market value. In 2020, the median assessed value from the Coryell County Appraisal District for houses in Coryell County was 98%. This was based on a ratio study of 1,301 house sales prepared by O’Connor in 2019 and 2020.

Is that 100%? Close, but not extremely close.

Most Houses are Not Valued Accurately in Coryell County

Check this out.

Out of a study of the 1,301 houses, many houses were far above and below the median value that they are supposed to be at. Here are some facts that were pulled from this study.

  • 725 houses were assessed below 100% (that is over 55.7%)
  • 44.3% of houses were assessed above 100% (that is 577 houses)

Of the 577 houses above market value:

  • 213 houses (16.3%) were more than 110% of market value
  • 133 houses (10.2%) were above 120%
  • 100 houses (7.6%) were assessed at more than 130% of market value

In other words, 7.6% of the houses assessed by the Coryell County Appraisal District were valued at 30% MORE than what they should be.

This means that you might have one of the houses in that 7.6% that could be paying more property tax than you need to be.
