FAQ

Common questions about property tax protests.

About

What is TX Tax Protest?

A self-service tool for Montgomery County homeowners. Enter your address, get a professional evidence packet with comparable property data and pre-filled protest forms.

Is this a law firm?

No. We are a technology company that provides data and pre-filled forms. We do not provide legal advice or represent you at hearings.

What counties do you serve?

Montgomery County, TX. We plan to expand to other Texas counties soon.

The Protest

Can my taxes go up if I protest?

Texas law prohibits raising your appraised value solely because you filed a protest.

What is the filing deadline?

May 15, or 30 days after you receive your Notice of Appraised Value — whichever is later.

Do I have to go to a hearing?

You can request a phone hearing, attend in person, or submit your evidence in writing using Form 50-283.

Can I protest every year?

Yes. Appraisals change every year, and protesting annually is the most effective way to keep your taxes fair.

Pricing

How much does it cost?

$50 per property for the current tax year. That covers the evidence report, pre-filled forms, and filing directions.

How is this different from hiring a firm?

Firms typically charge a percentage of your savings. We charge a flat $50 and you file the protest yourself.
