Protest your Galveston County appraisal with real evidence.
Galveston County support opens for the 2027 notice season. Join the waitlist and we'll email you when Galveston CAD appraisal notices become actionable.
Galveston CAD supports online protest filing and evidence upload. For island and near-coast properties, documenting condition and location factors alongside comparable sales is especially productive. The legal framework is the same statewide: you can argue market value (Tax Code §41.41) and equal-and-uniform appraisal (§41.43) in the same protest, and the deadline is May 15 or 30 days after your notice — whichever is later.

Cities we'll cover in Galveston County

Why flat fee instead of a percentage
Contingency protest firms typically charge 25–50% of your first-year savings, every year you use them. A $49 flat-fee packet means a homeowner who saves $1,000 keeps $1,000 minus $49 — not $500 to $750. The trade: you file it yourself, with the checklist walking you through each step.
Questions
When is the Galveston County protest deadline?+
Texas Tax Code §41.44 sets the deadline at May 15, or 30 days after Galveston CAD delivers your notice of appraised value, whichever is later. If you miss it, you generally wait until next year — which is why we open the waitlist early.
Do you file the protest with Galveston CAD for me?+
No. This is a self-file document product. You file the protest with Galveston Central Appraisal District yourself — the packet includes the evidence documents and a step-by-step filing checklist.
Do you guarantee Galveston CAD lowers my value?+
No. Galveston Central Appraisal District and the Galveston County appraisal review board decide final values. The product is the evidence packet, not a guaranteed tax result.
