Why You Should Protest Your 2025 Dallas County Property Tax Assessment
If you own a home in Dallas County, you may have noticed a significant increase in your property's assessed value this year. With the 2025 appraisal notices now delivered, it's crucial to ensure that your property's valuation accurately reflects its current market value. If it doesn't, you could be overpaying on your property taxes.
Property Values Are Soaring
In recent years, Dallas County homeowners have seen substantial increases in property taxes. According to a report by KERA News, property taxes have risen by approximately 41% over the past five years[1] This surge is attributed to escalating property values and the absence of a state income tax in Texas, which places a heavier reliance on property taxes to fund local services.
In 2024 alone, the Dallas Central Appraisal District reported an average increase of 15.2% in residential property values.[2] While 2025 data is still emerging, early indicators suggest that this upward trend is continuing.
Protest Deadline: May 15, 2025
If you believe your property's assessed value is too high, you have the right to file a protest. The deadline to submit a protest for the 2025 tax year is May 15, 2025, or 30 days after your appraisal notice was mailed, whichever is later[3]. Missing this deadline means you forfeit the opportunity to challenge your assessment for this year.
