How property tax appeals work in Fort Bend County
Every Texas homeowner has a right to protest their assessed value under Texas Property Tax Code §41.41. In Fort Bend County, protests are handled by the Fort Bend Central Appraisal District (FBCAD). The deadline is May 15, 2026 — or 30 days after your appraisal notice was mailed, whichever is later.
FBCAD's 'Owner Protest Portal' accepts online filings. Sugar Land and Katy ISD areas often see assessment values lag actual sale prices — strong appeal opportunities.
The strongest protests include 3-7 comparable sales from the last 12 months in your immediate neighborhood, adjusted for square footage, age, and condition. Sugar Land / Katy-area assessors typically reduce values when presented with clear, recent comp data.
