Milam Appraisal District
Local Appraisal District
O’Connor serves more Texas property owners than any other tax consultant because:
- O’Connor’s assertive strategy aligns closely with property owners’ best interests. We cover all fees and costs, regardless of how far the appeal process goes. Unlike many competitors who require property owners to pay for binding arbitration deposits or judicial appeal expenses—such as attorney fees, expert witness charges, and court costs—O’Connor ensures you pay nothing out of pocket for your property tax protest.
- With millions of tax appeals handled across Texas, we have developed a deep, proven understanding of how to effectively lower property taxes.
- You benefit from our extensive experience and proprietary software, which processes comparable sales and unequal appraisal data. Each hearing file we prepare typically contains 50 to 100 pages of detailed evidence designed to support your case.
- Our expertise allows us to compile and present sales and appraisal data in full compliance with the requirements of both the Milam Appraisal Review Board (ARB) and the Milam Appraisal District.
