Haven't heard anything from HCAD about my property taxes. I contested them by the deadline, which was 6 weeks ago. I know they are busy, but sheesh! I want to know NOW! Anyone else still waiting? 4951

It seems like you would have gotten word by now @topcat.Give them a call or send an email.  I hope you get the reduction!
 
@Fallon: I better call. I hope so too. It went up 20k and was too high in the first place.

@topcat - I heard back almost immediately in an email. They gave me a figure and I accepted within their timeframe and it was lowered within a few days. If I didn't accept by email, I would have had to go in. I figured I was lucky to get almost $1200 reduction and didn't want to chance it that they would raise my amount. 4951

I submitted mine about that long ago too and just heard by email yesterday. I wouldn't worry just yet. I'm sure a massive amount of people protested this year.
They lowered mine about $1500.... Whatever. 4951

I summited it on the last day. I just heard back that they would not lower it. And they will set a date for me. They raised it over 12 grand so yes I will go down in clue how to protest it in person but I will try suggestions would be appreciated. 4951

I submitted my protest on May 28 and just recieved a reply last week.  I don't know why it took so long, but they did provide a lot of documentation for their reply.  Bottom live was I lowered my appraisal by 1047.  Worth the cost of an email. 4951

I have my informal today. Weird thing is that I just looked at the hcad website and my home value is showing to be about 8k lower now than it was at the time I protested just a few months back! I'm still going to protest the new value and see what happens. Either way, I win (I guess). 4951

Yeah @mahm and I had our meeting last week.MCAD told us tough &$%@ and here is your tax bill for $25k more than you could possibly sell the house for. The process is a joke, its like arguing with a toddler that resolves to
simply saying "NUH UH" to your carefully presented protest.Thanks for the reminder though, I haven't remembered to call them and scream $&%@ YOU into the phone yet today. 4951
