Question 1

Who is this class designed for?

Accepted Answer

This session is designed for residential property owners in El Paso County who want to understand and challenge their property tax assessments with confidence.

Question 2

Do I need to bring anything with me?

Accepted Answer

You do not need to bring anything, but it’s helpful to come with your Notice of Appraised Value or any recent appraisal reports or repair estimates if you want to ask specific questions during or after the session.

Question 3

What will I learn in this class?

Accepted Answer

You’ll learn how to prepare and present a clear, evidence-based protest to the El Paso Central Appraisal District (EPCAD) or Appraisal Review Board (ARB), using real market data and proven valuation methods.

Question 4

Can I ask questions during the session?

Accepted Answer

There will be time for questions at the end of the presentation. For more detailed or personal inquiries, you may speak with the presenter after the session or schedule a consultation.

Question 5

How is this class different from others?

Accepted Answer

This class offers a high-level overview with detailed, actionable information not found in general online resources or tax protest tutorials. The content draws from professional experience in appraising, consulting, and representing clients in protests.

Question 6

Will protesting affect my homestead exemption or other exemptions?

Accepted Answer

No. Protesting your value does not affect your exemption status as long as you still qualify.

Question 7

How often should I protest?

Accepted Answer

Many experts recommend reviewing your notice every year and protesting if there is a basis. Regular reviews help maintain fair valuation.

Question 8

Why did my property taxes go up this year?

Accepted Answer

Most increases are due to rising market values as determined through mass appraisal. The appraisal district revalues properties annually based on market conditions.

Question 9

What happens if I miss the protest deadline?

Accepted Answer

You may lose the opportunity to protest that year unless you qualify for a late protest under limited conditions (e.g., clerical error).

Question 10

Can I protest my taxes based on the amount increasing too much?

Accepted Answer

You must protest based on the market value or unequal appraisal compared to similar properties. An increase alone is not a valid protest reason.

Question 11

Can I hire the presenter to handle my protest?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The presenter offers both contingent and non-contingent representation options. Details on pricing and services will be provided at the end of the session.

Question 12

Is this class only for homeowners, or can investors attend too?

Accepted Answer

Both homeowners and residential property investors are welcome. The principles apply to any owner protesting a residential property assessment.

Question 13

Will this class help me protest next year’s value too?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The information is applicable annually and will give you the tools to review and protest your valuation in future years.
