HB 1745 Texas House · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to the procedure for protests before appraisal review boards.

HB 1745 changes the process for property owners who dispute their tax appraisals before appraisal review boards. It sets new deadlines for hearings: protests filed March 1-July 1 must have a hearing by October 1, while other filings require a hearing within 90 days. The bill also requires appraisers to provide property owners with key documents 14 days before hearings, including the comptroller's pamphlet, data used in valuation, and a summary of why property values changed. This bill directly affects Texas property owners challenging their tax appraisals and takes effect September 1, 2025.
