🏢 Texas Property Tax Appeal Resources for HOAs & Condo Communities
🟧 Overview: Why HOAs & Condos Are Often Over-Assessed
Many condominium complexes, townhome communities, and HOAs across Texas are facing rising tax burdens — even in buildings or neighborhoods that haven’t significantly changed.
Why? Appraisal districts often rely on broad market assumptions, income potential, or comparable sales that don’t reflect your building’s unique condition, age, or restrictions.
📌 Good news: Tax values can be appealed every year — and HOAs or unit owners don’t have to navigate the process alone.
As a Texas-based HOA manager or condo association you’re already helping your property owners protect their most valuable asser — but what about helping them lower their property tax bill?
Property taxes are one of the largest costs of owning rental real estate in Texas
At Texas Tax Appeal, we partner with HOAs and condo communities like yours to offer property tax protest services that are risk-free and money saving — all without adding to your admin load.
📌 Important: The protest deadline is May 15, 2025 in most Texas counties.
💡 Key Takeaways:
🏙️ Shared-wall and multi-unit communities are often compared to luxury or newer units nearby
🔧 Deferred maintenance, parking limitations, or community rules are not reflected in valuations unless you protest
🏠 Individual units may be assessed inconsistently, especially across older or phased communities
🧾 Tax appeal success can benefit both common areas and unit owners
📆 Protest deadline for most Texas counties is May 15, 2025

🧰 Tips for HOAs, Boards & Condo Owners
Protest as a community. You can coordinate appeals for multiple owners at once, especially when units are assessed similarly.
Don’t forget common areas. Your HOA may be overpaying for non-revenue spaces like pools, clubhouses, or parking structures.
Older buildings may qualify for downward adjustments. Age, repairs, or deferred maintenance can reduce assessed value — but only if submitted properly.
Appealing doesn’t raise values. CADs are not allowed to increase a value just because you protested.
No homestead? No cap. Investment condos, STR units, and vacant units are taxed at full market value with no 10% limit.
📌 Many HOAs and associations don’t appeal annually — and unknowingly overpay thousands.
