The Old Braeswood Property Tax Task Force is pleased to provide you with information to assist you with your HCAD property tax protest.

As promised, please find attached the

1) Road Map of the Appraisal Process (PDF) - The road map contains some “tribal knowledge” about HCAD and the appraisal process; and,

2) Resources available for people who may wish to file a protest or law suit (PDF).

3) HCAD data base 2008 for Braeswood Addition (Microsoft Excel).

We apologize that we are unable to send you comparable sales information from the Houston Association of Realtors, but you can get this directly from a Realtor.

You can also pick up a paper copy of HCAD comps for Braeswood Addition (HCAD Neighbohrood #7417) at Bill Murray's home at 2402 Maroneal, or by contacting Dawn Gervais at 713-664-3657 or dawn@dawngervais.com. Special thanks to Linda Joekel on Gramercy for painstakingly compiling the information for N'hood #7417 and sharing it with of us.

We also apologize that we do not have HCAD comparables for HCAD neighborhood #7415 (aka Braeswood, Section One), but we would welcome any volunteer help in preparing this.

Please let us know if you find this information helpful. We would also like to hear if you were successful in your protest and feedback about any tax protest services you may have used.

Best of luck with your protest!
