Ask HCAD to provide a copy of the hearing evidence; they are required to provide it at no cost. Find neighborhood comparable sales which support a lower value. Find comparable properties that have a lower tax assessment and summarize them in a grid. Review the appraisal district property description that overstates the quality or quantity of improvements.
