Every property owner, whether you received a postcard or a full value notice has the right to protest their property value. The deadline to file a protest for most residential accounts is May 15th. The fastest and easiest way to protest your property value is through our website. To get started, all you need is your account number and online PIN.
The TAD online value negotiation tool was designed to give property owners a quick and efficient way to reach an agreement on their property value without the hassle of a formal hearing or even a phone call. The tool uses a variety of data, including sale comps, equity comps, the subject sale price (if available), and input from the user to offer a reduction in value if possible. While not all properties may receive a reduction, the process has been successful for thousands of users each year since its inception. If the value negotiation tool is unsuccessful, the website will guide the user through the traditional protest process.
If you received a postcard, please note that your market and appraised values remained the same. However, a small subset of accounts that initially received a postcard in error have since been mailed a corrected value notice and an explanatory letter.
After filing a protest, property owners are welcome to contact us at res@tad.org to discuss their value and explore a possible resolution prior to their hearing.
Our website is a valuable resource for questions and information about the protest process, exemptions, and other related matters.
