In Texas, to challenge your property taxes, you must file a "Notice of Protest" with the county’s Central Appraisal District before the deadline. You should compile evidence that supports your position on the property’s assessed value and attend either a meeting or a hearing with the Appraisal Review Board to present your case and request a reduction in your property tax liability.
