How to Check Your Morris County CAD Appraised Value 2026

Notices are mailed out in spring or early summer. Your notice shows last year’s value, the proposed 2026 value, and your protest deadline.

Appraisals use current market sales, cost data, and income approaches. State caps (like homestead protections) may automatically limit increases for eligible properties.

Morris County Texas Property Tax Protest – Step-by-Step

1. Gather evidence: comparable recent sales nearby, photos of property issues, repair estimates, or a private appraisal.
2. Download the protest form (Texas Comptroller Form 50-132) from the CAD Forms page or comptroller.texas.gov.
3. File by mail or in-person to the CAD office before the deadline.
4. Request an informal review first—many cases get fixed here.
5. If unresolved, attend the formal Appraisal Review Board (ARB) hearing.

Deadline: May 15 or 30 days after your notice date (whichever is later). Bring solid proof—the district has to support their valuation.
