Rockwall Central Appraisal District

Local Appraisal District

O’Connor serves more Texas property owners than any other tax consultant because:

  • The property owners’ interests are well served by O’Connor’s assertive strategy. Regardless of the degree of appeal, we cover the fees and expenses. Numerous competitors demand that the property owner pay a legally enforceable arbitration deposit or judicial appeal-related expenses such as court charges, expert witness fees, and attorney fees. You won’t be required to pay any fees or expenditures associated with your property tax protest.
  • Relationships are important, and we put a lot of effort into building them while also concentrating on our clients’ needs.
  • You have access to O’Connor’s millions of Texas property tax appeals, which are handled utilizing our proprietary software and comparable sales and unequal assessment data. Typically, the hearing evidence file is between 50 and 100 pages long.
  • Because of our experience, we have assembled sales and unequal assessment data in a manner that meets the needs of the Rockwall CAD and the Rockwall County ARB.

Frequently Asked Questions

Savings vary depending on property type and market comparables, but successful protests often result in several hundred to several thousand dollars in reduced property taxes.

Rockwall County offers exemptions such as homestead, over‑65, disability, and veteran exemptions, which can lower the taxable value of residential and commercial properties.

To protest, submit a formal appeal with the Rockwall County Appraisal District, provide evidence showing your property’s market value, and attend the appraisal review board hearing for a potential reduction.

Property tax protests must be filed by May 15th or within 30 days of receiving your appraisal notice, whichever comes later, to ensure your appeal is considered valid.

Residential, commercial, and industrial property owners can all appeal their property tax assessments if they believe the appraisal value is too high.
