Is TaxDrop available in Webb County?

Not yet. TaxDrop Pro (full service, 1% of the reduction) covers 17 Texas counties and TaxDrop One ($129 per property per tax year) covers 43. Webb County is not on either list, so we do not file or represent anyone at the Webb CAD Appraisal Review Board (ARB). You can still use our free estimate to check whether your appraisal looks high, then protest on your own using the steps below.

How to protest your Webb County property taxes yourself

Read your notice of appraised value. Webb County Appraisal District mails notices in the spring. Check the market value, exemptions and property details.
File by the deadline. May 15, or 30 days after the appraisal district sends your notice of appraised value, whichever is later. In 2027, May 15 falls on a Saturday, so the deadline moves to Monday, May 17, 2027. Use the date on your notice.
File the protest. Use Webb CAD's online protest option if it offers one, or send Comptroller Form 50-132 (Notice of Protest). A written notice that identifies you, the property and what you disagree with also counts.
Gather evidence. Recent sales of similar homes, equity comparisons, photos and repair estimates.
Try the informal review. Many districts offer an informal meeting with an appraiser and may offer a settlement.
Go to your ARB hearing if needed. You will get at least 15 days' notice. You can attend in person, by phone or video, or send a sworn affidavit.

What evidence works

Sales of comparable homes near the January 1 valuation date
Unequal appraisal: similar homes appraised lower than yours
Photos and contractor estimates for repairs or defects
Closing documents if you bought recently

The ARB decides market value and unequal appraisal, not whether your taxes feel too high.

After the ARB

If you disagree with the ARB order, you can petition district court within 60 days, or request regular binding arbitration (homesteads or property valued at $5 million or less) or a SOAH hearing (over $1 million).

Common Mistakes

Missing the May 15 Deadline - File by May 15 or within 30 days of receiving your notice, whichever is later. Missing this limits your options.
Not Using Texas-Specific Comparable Sales - Use recent sales of similar properties in Webb County. Out-of-area or outdated comps won't be persuasive.
Skipping the Informal Review - Meeting with the appraiser before the ARB hearing often resolves protests faster and avoids formal hearing.
Protesting Based on Tax Amount - You must prove your property's market value is lower than the appraised value, not that taxes are too high.
Failing to Bring Evidence - The ARB requires documentation. Personal opinions without supporting data will result in denial.

How the Process Works

Notice of appraised value arrives in the spring
File your protest with Webb CAD by May 15 or 30 days after the notice (May 17, 2027)
Informal review with an appraiser
ARB hearing if you do not settle
District court, arbitration or SOAH if you disagree with the ARB

TaxDrop does not currently file in Webb County; these are the steps to do it yourself.

FAQs

Does TaxDrop file protests in Webb County?

Not currently. TaxDrop Pro (1% of the reduction) serves 17 Texas counties and TaxDrop One ($129 per property per year) serves 43. Webb County is not one of them yet. You can still protest on your own for free using the steps on this page.

When is the Webb County protest deadline?

May 15, or 30 days after the appraisal district sends your notice of appraised value, whichever is later. In 2027, May 15 falls on a Saturday, so the deadline moves to Monday, May 17, 2027. Use the date on your notice.

Does it cost anything to protest with Webb County Appraisal District?

No. The appraisal district cannot charge a fee to file a protest. You can file online if Webb CAD offers an online portal, or with Comptroller Form 50-132 (Notice of Protest).

What evidence should I bring?

Your notice of appraised value, recent sales of similar homes, equity comparisons (similar homes appraised lower), and photos or repair estimates for condition problems. You cannot just say the value is wrong; you need evidence.

What if I disagree with the ARB decision?

You can file a petition in district court within 60 days of the ARB order, or, if you qualify, request regular binding arbitration (homesteads or property valued at $5 million or less) or a SOAH hearing (over $1 million).

Can I hire someone to protest for me?

Yes. A licensed property tax consultant or other agent can represent you if you sign Comptroller Form 50-162 (Appointment of Agent). TaxDrop does not offer that service in Webb County today.
