How to protest property taxes in Lubbock County
Every Texas homeowner has a right to protest their assessed value under Texas Property Tax Code §41.41. In Lubbock County, protests are handled by the Lubbock Central Appraisal District (LCAD). The usual deadline is May 15 or 30 days after your appraisal notice was mailed, whichever is later. A weekend or legal-holiday deadline moves to the next regular business day. Confirm your district calendar and tax year.
LCAD uses paper and online filings. Texas Tech-area rental properties often see inflated valuations, and owner-occupied homes nearby may be similarly affected.
The strongest protests include 3-7 comparable sales from the last 12 months in your immediate neighborhood, adjusted for square footage, age, and condition. Lubbock-area assessors typically reduce values when presented with clear, recent comp data.
Lubbock County is one of the counties in our Texas Over-Assessment Study, where we ran millions of homes through the same unequal-appraisal comparison the LCAD uses. You can check your own address free in 30 seconds, or read our full methodology first.
