Filing a Fort Bend County property tax protest can help you reduce your property tax bill if you believe your home or commercial property has been overvalued. Start by reviewing your appraisal notice from the Fort Bend Central Appraisal District and comparing your assessed value with similar properties in your area. Gather supporting evidence such as recent sales data, photos, or repair estimates, then file your protest online or by mail typically within 30 days of the notice date. If needed, you can present your case to the Appraisal Review Board. A successful property tax protest can lead to a fairer valuation and real savings.
