Limestone County Property Tax Protest

Limestone County homeowners can protest their 2025 property appraisal with the Limestone County Appraisal District (Limestone CAD). AppealTexasTax is a free, independent tool — not affiliated with Limestone CAD — that checks whether your single-family home is appraised above the median of comparable homes (a §41.43(b)(3) case) and walks you through filing. It is not legal advice.

How Limestone County's 2025 appraisals stack up

1,133
Limestone County single-family homes appraised more than 2% above the comp median of their 5 closest matched neighbors on the 2025 Limestone CAD roll — on the size-adjusted or raw-dollar measure, whichever is stronger — the threshold for a §41.43(b)(3) protest. That's 15% of all single-family parcels countywide — a combined $48 million of appraised value sitting above the comp median — an unequal-appraisal protest each owner could file, and most never do.
7,341
single-family homes on the countywide roll
1,002
strong cases — more than 7% over the comp median
$1.2 billion
total 2025 appraised value, single-family

This count reflects the spread of the data, not proof of a county-wide error: any large dataset has homes above and below the median, and §41.43(b)(3) lets an owner whose home sits above the median of its comps protest down toward it. The test is single-family residential only and doesn't weigh lot size, condition, pools, or other inputs the CAD's full model includes — check your specific home on the map.

Limestone County property-tax protest FAQ

How do I protest my Limestone County property tax appraisal?

Open the AppealTexasTax map and find your Limestone County home. The pin color shows whether your 2025 appraisal sits above the median of comparable homes. Click your pin for a personalized report with your comps and the lowest defensible value to enter as your opinion of value, then file online through Limestone CAD online protest — or use the paper form your notice came with — before the May filing deadline.

What is the deadline to protest my appraisal in Limestone County?

Generally the May filing deadline: May 15, or 30 days after your Limestone CAD notice of appraised value is delivered, whichever is later. If that date lands on a weekend or holiday it rolls to the next business day. Always check the protest deadline printed on your own notice.

Is AppealTexasTax free to use?

Yes. AppealTexasTax is a free, independent tool built by a citizen developer. It is not affiliated with the Limestone County Appraisal District (Limestone CAD), any appraisal review board, or the State of Texas, and it is not legal advice.

How does AppealTexasTax decide if my Limestone County home is over-assessed?

It compares your Limestone CAD appraised value to the median of your five closest comparable homes — same neighborhood and grade, within 15% of your living area and 10 years of age — under the Texas Tax Code §41.43(b)(3) unequal-appraisal standard, measured both size-adjusted and in raw dollars. If your value is above the stronger of those two medians, you likely have a case to protest.

Do I need a lawyer or a tax agent to protest?

No. Any property owner can file their own protest for free and present comparable-home evidence themselves. The Playbook walks through the whole process step by step.
