Texas Property Tax Guide
Property Tax Comps
Property tax comps are comparable properties used to test whether the appraisal district's value is too high or unequal compared with similar properties.
What makes a useful comp
Useful comps are similar in location, size, age, property type, condition, and market timing. A nearby sale is not automatically comparable if the property is meaningfully different.
Comps need context
A strong protest explains why the selected properties matter and why less similar properties should carry less weight.
