Never Overpay Again.

Property taxes are one of the biggest expenses for any owner. Miss a single exemption or let the county over-value your property, and it could cost you thousands every year.

‍
The appeal process is complex and time-consuming by design. That's exactly why we handle it for you.

‍
Our state-licensed consultants know how to file for every exemption and build a case that gets results. With data on 158M+ properties, we know what your home should actually be assessed at—and we'll prove it.

‍

You've got enough expenses. Your property tax bill shouldn't be higher than it needs to be - and with our "no savings, no fee guarantee" we only get paid if you see a reduction.

Key Property Tax Stats

  • Informal hearing success rates in Texas range from 70–90%, where most protests (including many rental properties) are resolved with reduced values.
  • Average savings from successful protests depend on property value and local rates, for example a 10% reduction on a $400,000 value can save $800–$1,500+ per year.
  • In Bexar County over a three‑year period, homeowners (including some rental property owners) who protested saved an average of $269 per household in property tax when assessed values were reduced.
  • Across several Texas counties, homeowners who protested achieved average reductions in assessed value of about 5.1%–10.1% when their protests succeeded.
  • In Tarrant County, property owners who protested saw an average reduction in assessed value of about 10.1% and saved over $103.67 million collectively in tax bills

Biggest Pain Points

Your Rental Property Is Probably Over-Assessed

Single-family rentals get hit hardest by mass appraisals. Appraisal districts don't account for vacancy loss, deferred maintenance, actual rental income vs. theoretical, or dated interiors that reduce rent. Result: You pay 15–30% more in property taxes than you should.

Most Landlords Never Protest

Only 3% of rental property owners protest their taxes every year. They're too busy managing tenants, don't know the process, or think it won't make a difference. Reality: Rental property protests have an 85% success rate in Texas and 75% in California.

DIY Protests Waste Time and Money

Going alone means 10–20 hours researching comps, learning appraisal district procedures, attending hearings during business hours, and possibly missing key deadlines (May 15 in Texas). Better option: TaxDrop handles everything. You pay nothing unless we save you money.

How it Works

1. Get Your Free Estimate (90 seconds)

Enter your rental property address. We pull property data and calculate your potential savings.

2. We Build Your Protest

Our team gathers recent rental property sales (true comps), income analysis from actual rent rolls, market vacancy rates for your area, and comparable rental income data.

3. We File and Fight

We file all paperwork before deadlines, handle informal hearings (Texas) or assessment appeals (California), and escalate to formal hearings if needed. You never lift a finger.

4. You Save Money

Average rental property savings: $2,400/year. You pay 25% of savings (only if we win). Minimum savings threshold: $500 (no fee below this).

Avoid these Common Mistakes

  • Not protesting every year — Appraisal values creep up. Annual protests keep them in check.
  • Using primary residence comps — Rentals sell for less. Use investor comps only.
  • Ignoring income approach — Rental income is the #1 value indicator for investment properties.
  • Missing deadlines — Texas: May 15 is firm. California: Varies by county.
  • Not tracking expenses — Vacancy loss, repairs, and turnover costs reduce rental value. Document these.
