How property tax appeals work in El Paso County
Every Texas homeowner has a right to protest their assessed value under Texas Property Tax Code §41.41. In El Paso County, protests are handled by the El Paso Central Appraisal District (EPCAD). The deadline is May 15, 2027, or 30 days after your appraisal notice was mailed, whichever is later.
EPCAD allows online appraisal protests. El Paso has one of the highest effective tax rates in Texas, so successful appeals deliver outsized savings relative to home value.
The strongest protests include 3-7 comparable sales from the last 12 months in your immediate neighborhood, adjusted for square footage, age, and condition. El Paso-area assessors typically reduce values when presented with clear, recent comp data.
El Paso County is one of the counties in our Texas Over-Assessment Study, where we ran millions of homes through the same unequal-appraisal comparison the EPCAD uses. You can check your own address free in 30 seconds, or read our full methodology first.
