[quote:bhdz71:MV80MTkyOTc1Xzc2MjcxNDY2X0RENTI4OTlD] [quote:Giselle22:MV80MTkyOTc1Xzc2MjcxMDU4XzE2Q0U1Rjg0] Protest your taxes IN PERSON & EARLY. You may gather the comp's from a Realtor similar to your house. Best is find a home that is similar to your own home, paying less taxes than you. Take pics of your home outside only of where your home HAS NOT BEEN UPDATED. In my county in Texas, the appraiser told me there is three ratings, CURRENTLY UPDATED & READY TO SELL, Updated & NO UPDATES from original build. Go for the one most applicable to your home. I RECEIVED THE no updates from original build, except new roof. I had pics & showed my front door damaged, busy Main Street, power lines. I showed my house in the worst light with a ONE ON ONE MEETING WITH APPRAISER. LEARN TO PLAY THE GAME. GOOD LUCK. I live in the north DFW area. [/quote] This! Don't just accept and pay them, look them over and dispute any over appraisals. Last year my house and land appraisals doubled over the previous year and another 1.5 acres with 7 pine trees I own was appraised at $82,000. I told the tax office to write me a check for everything, they "fixed" it quick. [/quote]

Why can't we raise the drivers license fee so that renters can bear some of the Burdon. My thought is not perfect but man it makes me want to sell my house and just get an apt
