How to protest in Sterling County

  1. Find your property in the Sterling County Appraisal District records (link above).
  2. Note your appraised value and living area, then look at comparable homes in your neighborhood (similar size, age, and quality). If your value per square foot is above the comparable median, you have grounds for an unequal-appraisal protest under Texas Property Tax Code §41.43(b)(3). You can also protest on market value with your own evidence (condition issues, repair estimates, a recent purchase price, or an independent appraisal).
  3. File online through the CAD portal above, generally by May 15 (or 30 days after your notice, whichever is later).

The full generator is live for these counties: Harris County, Dallas County, Tarrant County, Bexar County, Travis County, Collin County, Denton County, Fort Bend County, Williamson County, Cameron County, Brazoria County, Galveston County, Guadalupe County. It's on the roadmap to add more. In the meantime the steps above walk you through protesting Sterling County yourself.
