Collingsworth County Appraisal District CAD & Tax

Collingsworth County, Texas · Homes, ranches, minerals, business property, protests and tax collection

Use the Right Collingsworth County Account Before You Search, Protest or Pay

Collingsworth County Appraisal District maintains more than ordinary home records. Its official database includes real estate, mineral interests, business personal property, utilities and industrial accounts across Wellington, Dodson and rural areas connected to several school districts.

The most important local difference is payment routing: the Texas Comptroller states that the county Tax Assessor-Collector does not collect property taxes. Search the account through Collingsworth CAD, then call the CAD to verify the collecting office, payment method and receipt process.

Critical Collingsworth County correction: the County Tax Assessor-Collector does not collect property taxes. The Texas Comptroller advises taxpayers to contact Collingsworth CAD because the appraisal district may collect some or all local property taxes. Do not travel to the vehicle-registration office or mail a check until the collector and mailing instructions are confirmed.

Start with the task

What do you need from the Collingsworth County property system?

HOME OR TOWN LOT Find a real-estate account

Search the property ID, owner or address and confirm the legal description, improvements and exemption status.

Follow the property-search steps
FARM OR RANCH Review rural land details

Check acreage, abstract, land category, productivity value, improvements and agricultural qualification.

Use the agricultural checklist
MINERAL OR UTILITY Separate the non-surface account

Use the property-type, lease, abstract and advanced filters instead of relying only on a street address.

Choose the correct account type
PROTEST VALUE Save the 2026 account first

Identify whether the issue is market value, unequal appraisal, classification, exemption or inaccurate property data.

Build a focused evidence packet
PAY PROPERTY TAX Confirm the collector with CAD

The county Tax Assessor-Collector does not collect property taxes, so obtain account-specific instructions from CAD.

Use the local payment checklist
VERIFY OWNERSHIP Use County Clerk records

Recorded deeds, liens, mineral reservations, releases and plats control legal-document research.

Use the deed-record workflow

Go directly to the Collingsworth County task

Search and verify the account first. Continue to exemptions, protests, collections or recorded documents only after the correct property type and year are confirmed.

1. Basic Search Enter an owner name, owner ID, property ID or address. Use this for the quickest first attempt.
2. By Owner Search owner ID, owner name, care-of name, mailing street, city, state or ZIP code.
3. By Property Search property ID, Geo ID, situs address, legal description, abstract, subdivision, lease name or lease number.

5. Advanced Search Search prior or current owner, deed information, survey, category, acreage, market value or taxable value.
The screenshot is an interface guide, not a live account. Reopen the official search and select the correct tax year before relying on a value, exemption, protest status or tax balance.
10 actionable record attributes

Check these fields before contacting Collingsworth CAD

Ten account details that prevent search, protest and payment mistakes
Attribute What it tells you What to do with it
1. Parcel or property ID The appraisal district’s primary property identifier. Save it for forms, calls, protests and collection questions.
2. Account number An additional account reference shown in the results or details. Confirm which number the collector or County Clerk expects.
3. Owner ID The owner record connected to one or more accounts. Use it to locate related properties, but verify each account separately.
4. Property type Whether the account is real estate, mineral or personal property. Never compare values until the property types match.
5. Geo ID A geographic reference connected to the parcel or account. Compare it with the interactive map and legal description.
6. Legal description The abstract, survey, tract, lot, block or subdivision description. Verify it against recorded deeds, plats and surveys.
7. Lease information A lease name or number connected to mineral property. Match it with mineral deeds, leases, operator records and ownership documents.
8. Acres Acreage carried for appraisal purposes. Confirm surveyed acreage before using it in a legal or purchase decision.
9. Market and taxable value Appraisal and exemption-related value information for the selected year. Review the correct taxing-unit and property-type context.
10. Base tax due A tax-related figure displayed in the search grid. Call Collingsworth CAD to verify the live balance, collector and payment instructions.
Account classification

Use a different workflow for real estate, mineral, personal and utility property

Real estate

Homes, town lots, farmland, ranchland, commercial land and improvements.

  • Check situs and legal description.
  • Separate land from improvements.
  • Review square footage and condition.
  • Verify homestead or special appraisal.
Farm and ranch land

Rural acreage that may receive productivity or open-space appraisal.

  • Check abstract and acreage.
  • Review qualifying use.
  • Keep livestock, crop and lease records.
  • Understand rollback exposure.
Mineral property

Royalty, working and other mineral interests that may be separate from the surface estate.

  • Use lease name and number.
  • Search owner and abstract.
  • Review mineral-specific value evidence.
  • Use County Clerk records for title.
Personal, utility or industrial

Business assets, utilities, machinery, pipelines and other income-producing property.

  • Confirm the legal entity and situs.
  • Review category and asset records.
  • Check the 2026 BPP exemption.
  • File the required rendition.
The official CAD site states that Pritchard & Abbott appraises real estate, personal property, mineral, utility and industrial accounts for the district.
Property-page decoder

Understand what the appraisal record does and does not prove

Use the CAD record as a routing tool, not a substitute for every official document
Record field Useful for Does not replace Next step
Owner shown Appraisal notices, account searches and exemption administration. A complete title examination. Use the County Clerk for recorded ownership documents.
Situs address Locating a home, business or improvement. A legal description or guaranteed rural address. Compare the map, deed and legal description.
Legal description Identifying the abstract, survey, tract, lot or block. The complete recorded deed or survey. Obtain the relevant recorded instrument.
Market value Understanding CAD’s January 1 value opinion. A guaranteed sale price or current tax balance. Compare appraisal evidence or contact the collector.
Productivity value Reviewing qualifying agricultural or open-space land. Proof that the land continues to qualify. Keep current land-use evidence.
Exemption Checking homestead, age, disability, veteran or other relief. Approval for another property or year. Confirm the exemption on the 2026 account.
Map parcel Visual location and nearby-property context. A legal survey or boundary determination. Use a professional survey for boundary decisions.
Tax due Identifying an account that may have an outstanding balance. A live payoff, receipt or collector confirmation. Call Collingsworth CAD before paying.
Search troubleshooting

Fix a missing Collingsworth CAD result before assuming the account is absent

Change one search element at a time
Problem Likely reason Practical fix
Owner name shows no result The record may use initials, another name order, a spouse, estate, trust or company. Search only the last name or one distinctive business word.
Full address fails The record may use a different suffix, direction, city or rural-location format. Use only the street number and main street name.
Farm or ranch has no normal address The account may be indexed by abstract, legal description, Geo ID or owner. Use By Property, All Criteria or the map.
Only the surface account appears The mineral interest may be listed separately. Select Mineral and search the owner, lease or abstract.
Business account is missing It may be indexed under the legal entity, DBA, owner ID or personal-property type. Search the business name and Personal Property filter.
New owner is not shown The deed may still be processing from the County Clerk. Confirm the recorded instrument and give CAD the filing reference.
A tract split is missing The new parcel may not yet be publicly reflected. Search the parent tract, prior owner and recorded plat or deed.
Tax-due filter hides the account The account may not currently show a balance in that search view. Remove “Show only Properties with Tax Due” and search again.
Online protest login fails The user account or property PIN may not be connected. Register, request a PIN and contact CAD before the deadline if access remains unavailable.
Prepared CAD call script
I am researching tax year [year] for property ID [number] / owner ID [number]. The account type is [real estate, mineral or personal property], and the property is described as [address, abstract, tract or lease]. I need help with [exact missing result, value, exemption or collection question]. Which record or form controls this issue?
Parcel and rural-location research

Use the Collingsworth CAD interactive map without treating it as a survey

Open the official CAD map Open Collingsworth CAD Interactive Map
Locate the property using a strong identifier Use the property ID, owner, address, abstract, survey or legal description where supported.
Compare surrounding parcels Review road access, parcel shape, adjoining tracts, town lots and rural acreage patterns.
Return to the property details Confirm that the map parcel and appraisal account share the same identifiers and legal description.
Use recorded documents for legal decisions Obtain the deed, plat, mineral instruments, title evidence and survey before resolving acreage or boundary questions.
Do not build, fence, sell or divide land from an appraisal-map line alone. CAD maps are useful for research and context but do not establish a legal boundary.
Value explanation

Separate market value, limited value and taxable value

STEP 1 Market value

CAD’s opinion of what the property would sell for under normal market conditions as of January 1.

STEP 2 Appraised or limited value

The value after an applicable homestead cap, circuit-breaker limit or special appraisal.

STEP 3 Taxable value

The value after exemptions, used with each taxing unit’s adopted rate to calculate taxes.

Residence homestead cap

A qualifying homestead’s appraised value generally cannot increase by more than 10% per year, excluding new improvements.

2026 non-homestead limitation

Qualifying non-homestead real property valued at $5.32 million or less may receive the temporary 20% circuit-breaker limitation.

Productivity appraisal

Qualifying open-space land may be appraised from agricultural productivity rather than full market value.

The CAD website publishes 2025 rates while 2026 local rates are proposed and adopted. Do not apply an old combined rate to a 2026 value and treat the result as the official bill.
Local property scenarios

Search differently for Wellington, Dodson and rural school-district property

Wellington home

Confirm City of Wellington, Wellington ISD, county, hospital, flood-control and water-district treatment where applicable.

Dodson property

Check City of Dodson, legal description, improvement details and the correct school district.

Rural ranchland

Use owner, abstract, survey, tract and map searches rather than depending on a street address.

Split school-district area

Collingsworth County includes property connected to Wellington, Hedley, McLean, Memphis and Shamrock school districts.

Mineral interest

Select the mineral filter and match the lease, abstract, owner and recorded mineral documents.

Farm or ranch improvements

Check houses, barns, sheds, pens, mobile homes and other improvements separately from the land.

Business in Wellington

Search for a separate personal-property account and review the new 2026 $125,000 BPP exemption.

Utility or pipeline account

Use category and advanced filters because the account may not correspond to a normal surface address.

Inherited family property

Compare CAD ownership with deeds, probate records, heir-property affidavits and current mailing addresses.

Correct office routing

Send each Collingsworth County question to the office that controls it

Value, collection, vehicle and recorded-document services are not handled by one office
Your question Correct starting point Prepare before contacting
What is the appraised value? Collingsworth CAD Property ID, type, tax year and disputed field.
Why is my exemption missing? Collingsworth CAD Application, qualification date, identification and submission proof.
Where do I pay property tax? Contact Collingsworth CAD first Property ID, account, year, property type and tax-due record.
What is the live payoff? Collector identified by Collingsworth CAD All outstanding years and written payoff request.
Do I have a vehicle-registration issue? County Tax Assessor-Collector Vehicle title, registration or TxDMV documents.
Who legally owns the land? County Clerk or title professional Grantor, grantee, instrument number and legal description.
Who owns the minerals? County Clerk records and mineral-title professional Deeds, reservations, leases, probate and chain-of-title documents.
Who sets the tax rate? Each local taxing unit The complete taxing-unit list for the property.
Account corrections

Correct the source of the inaccurate property information

Incorrect appraisal owner Confirm the deed, probate document, transfer-on-death deed or other recorded ownership instrument.
Incorrect mailing address Update CAD promptly so appraisal notices, collection correspondence and hearing documents reach the correct person.
Incorrect acreage or legal description Compare the deed, survey, plat and abstract information before requesting a correction.
Incorrect house or improvement details Prepare photographs, measurements, plans, repair estimates or other property-specific evidence.
Incorrect mineral account Gather leases, mineral deeds, ownership percentages, operator records and relevant recorded documents.
Incorrect business assets Prepare invoices, asset lists, acquisition dates, disposals, depreciation and rendition records.
A correction and a protest serve different purposes. A correction addresses inaccurate account information. A protest challenges an appraisal-district action such as value, unequal appraisal, classification or exemption denial.
Residence and special exemptions

Verify the exemption on the 2026 account before estimating taxes

Residence homestead

Texas school districts provide a $140,000 general residence-homestead exemption.

Age 65 or older

School districts provide an additional $60,000 exemption, with possible tax-ceiling and payment protections.

Disabled person

Review qualification evidence and the additional school-district exemption.

Disabled veteran

Use the appropriate state form and current VA documentation for the claimed category.

Heir property

Prepare affidavits, the prior owner’s death certificate, utility evidence and available court records.

Other exempt property

Review charitable, religious, timber, public-use and other state exemption forms as applicable.

What to prepare for a homestead application

Completed residence-homestead application
Property ID and owner information
Copy of driver licence or other required identification
Principal-residence and ownership date
Required address or ownership affidavit
Age, disability or VA documentation
Heirship or probate documents when relevant
Proof of mailing or delivery
The CAD forms page directs applicants to mail completed forms to Collingsworth County Appraisal District, 800 West Avenue, Box 9, Wellington, Texas 79095-3037. Confirm before emailing sensitive identification documents.
Important 2026 business change

Use the new $125,000 business personal property exemption correctly

Effective for 2026: qualifying tangible personal property held or used to produce income receives a $125,000 exemption under Texas law, generally applied by location and taxing unit.
What may be included

Furniture, fixtures, machinery, equipment, inventory and other income-producing tangible personal property.

Location matters

The exemption is generally calculated for property at each separate location within a taxing unit.

Related businesses

Property owned by related entities operating as one unified enterprise may be aggregated under the statutory rules.

Leased property

Special aggregation rules apply to income-producing personal property owned and leased by a person.

Rendition is still important

Business owners should not assume the exemption eliminates every filing or documentation requirement.

Verify every taxing unit

The property’s taxable treatment can differ based on situs, location, ownership and the taxing unit involved.

Business owner action list

Search the 2026 personal-property account
Confirm each physical business location
List owned and leased assets separately
Identify related business entities
Keep acquisition and disposal records
Review the exemption shown by taxing unit
File the required rendition on time
Retain filing and exemption confirmation
Do not delete an account or skip a rendition based only on an estimated asset total. Ask Collingsworth CAD how the 2026 exemption applies to the specific location, related entities, leased property and taxing units.
Farm, ranch and wildlife land

Document qualifying use instead of relying only on acreage

1-d-1 open-space agricultural appraisal
  • Confirm the owner and legal description.
  • Review qualifying-use history.
  • Keep livestock, crop, grazing and lease records.
  • Document fences, water, stocking and management.
  • Compare market value with productivity value.
  • Ask about rollback consequences before changing use.
Wildlife-management use
  • Confirm that the land first qualifies for open-space appraisal.
  • Prepare a written wildlife-management plan.
  • Keep dated activity and expense records.
  • Document habitat, water, food, census and predator-control practices.
  • Retain photographs and maps.
  • Report material use changes promptly.
Collingsworth CAD provides an Agricultural Exemption Form – 1D1 on its forms page. Agricultural appraisal is based on statutory qualification and use history, not simply on owning a large tract.
2026 appraisal protest

File against the correct property type and support one clear issue

Normal deadline: May 15 or the 30th day after Collingsworth CAD mails the appraisal notice, whichever date is later. Use the individual notice.
Save the complete 2026 account Keep the property ID, owner, type, legal description, land, improvements, values, exemptions and prior-year information.
Choose the exact protest reason Examples include market value, unequal appraisal, inaccurate property data, incorrect classification, exemption denial or special-appraisal denial.
Request an online account PIN when needed Create or sign in to the official account and retain the PIN-request confirmation. Request a Property PIN
File through an accepted route Use the official online protest system or a written Notice of Protest delivered according to CAD instructions. Open Online Protest
Keep proof of filing Save the timestamp, confirmation email, uploaded-document list, certified-mail receipt or stamped copy.
Request the district’s evidence Ask for the information CAD intends to present and compare it with the property account and your documents.
Use evidence that matches the account Real-estate sales do not prove mineral value, and mineral records do not prove the condition of a house or business asset.
Attempt an informal resolution State the requested value or correction first, then present the strongest labelled evidence.
Prepare for the formal ARB hearing Mark disputed CAD evidence, organise exhibits and retain the written ARB order after the hearing.
Evidence that fits common Collingsworth County account types
Account Useful evidence Common mistake
Home or commercial building Comparable sales, equal-appraisal accounts, photographs, measurements, repair estimates and closing records. Arguing only that the tax bill is high.
Farm or ranch land Deed, survey, land-use records, leases, productivity evidence, acreage and classification documents. Using unrelated town-lot sales.
Mineral property Lease information, ownership documents, operator records and mineral-specific valuation evidence. Using only surface-property sales.
Business personal property Asset schedules, invoices, age, condition, depreciation, disposal proof and rendition records. Submitting an unlabeled total without asset detail.
Taxes and appraised value are different issues. CAD determines appraisal values and exemptions; local elected bodies adopt tax rates. A protest should identify the CAD action being challenged.

Public data and appraisal reports

Use Collingsworth CAD’s published records before requesting a custom file

The Data and Records page contains information that can answer many appraisal, tax-rate, methodology and certified-roll questions without a broad open-records request.

2026 certified rolls

The page provides 2026 certified real and personal appraisal-roll files in geographic, alphabetical and spreadsheet formats.

Mineral rolls

Historical certified mineral-roll downloads are available for several prior tax years.

Mass appraisal reports

Use the reports to understand appraisal methodology and valuation processes.

Annual reports

Review district activity, workload and annual appraisal information.

Tax-rate history

Historical adopted rates are useful for prior-year research but do not establish 2026 rates.

ARB procedures

Review hearing procedures and taxpayer-assistance materials before a formal hearing.

For a custom request, specify the tax year, property type, exact field, geographic area and requested format. “All property data” is less actionable than a narrowly defined request.
Local collection routing

Confirm the property-tax collector before sending payment

The Collingsworth County Tax Assessor-Collector does not collect property taxes. The Texas Comptroller directory says the appraisal district may be responsible for collecting some or all local property taxes and instructs taxpayers to contact the CAD.
Locate the correct CAD account Search by property ID, owner, address, legal description, lease or account type. Search Collingsworth CAD
Confirm every tax year and property type A real-estate, mineral or personal-property account may have a separate balance and collection record.
Call Collingsworth CAD at 806-447-5172 Ask who collects the taxes for the specific account and taxing units.
Request the live amount due Ask for the total by tax year, including penalty, interest, attorney fees or other charges when applicable.
Confirm accepted payment methods Verify whether the collector accepts online, mailed, in-person, card, e-check, check or money-order payment.
Confirm the payee and mailing address Do not use the county vehicle-registration mailing address unless the property-tax collector specifically directs you to it.
Ask how partial payments are applied Obtain written instructions when directing money to a specific account, taxing unit or tax year.
Save proof of payment Keep the account, tax year, amount, payee, date, confirmation, cancelled check and official receipt.
Verify posting Recheck the account or contact the collector after processing to confirm the intended balance was reduced.
Property-tax collection call script
I need to pay property taxes for tax year [year] on property ID [number] / account [number]. The property type is [real estate, mineral or personal property]. Please confirm the collecting office, current payoff, accepted payment methods, correct payee, mailing or online-payment route and how I will receive a receipt.
2026 tax-year deadline note: January 31, 2027 falls on a Sunday. Under the Texas next-business-day rule, a normal deadline generally moves to Monday, February 1, 2027. The date on the actual statement controls.

Recorded land documents

Use the County Clerk for deeds, liens, mineral reservations and plats

Collingsworth County Clerk records Official Public Records. The official county page currently lists a recording fee of $16 for the first page and $4 for each additional page. Copy, certification and document-specific fees should be confirmed directly.
Open the official County Clerk page Open Collingsworth County Clerk
Prepare the grantor and grantee names Include current and prior owners, spouses, estates, trusts, businesses and spelling variations.
Narrow the date range Use the approximate sale, inheritance, lien, release, mineral conveyance, lease or plat date.
Compare the document with CAD Match the instrument number, parties, legal description, acreage, reservations and recording date.
Request the correct copy type Explain whether the recipient needs a plain copy, certified copy, plat or another official record.
Use qualified title help when necessary County Clerk staff record documents but do not replace a lawyer, title company, landman or surveyor.
The CAD owner field does not prove complete surface or mineral ownership. Use the recorded chain of title when purchasing, selling, inheriting, leasing minerals or resolving an ownership dispute.
Buyer, seller and heir checks

Complete these checks before relying on a Collingsworth County account

Match the surface parcel

Confirm property ID, Geo ID, legal description, abstract, acreage and map location.

Search minerals separately

Review mineral deeds, reservations, leases, probate documents and separate appraisal accounts.

Confirm all tax balances

Obtain collector instructions for every real, mineral and personal-property account involved.

Recalculate exemptions

The seller’s homestead exemption, cap, tax ceiling or agricultural appraisal may not transfer.

Review agricultural qualification

Confirm use history, productivity appraisal and possible rollback-tax exposure.

Inspect improvements

Compare CAD’s house, barn, shed, mobile-home and other improvement details with the property.

Check school-district assignment

Verify whether the parcel is connected to Wellington, Hedley, McLean, Memphis or Shamrock ISD.

Review access and boundaries

Use a survey, recorded easements and road-access documents—not only the CAD map.

Save the transaction file

Keep the deed, title policy, survey, closing statement, tax payoff, mineral documents and exemption proof.

The current tax amount may not predict the buyer’s future bill. Ownership changes can affect homestead exemptions, appraisal limitations, agricultural treatment and taxable value.
2026 action calendar

Important Collingsworth County appraisal and tax dates

Valuation and property-status date Ownership, condition, use, business situs and market value are generally considered as of January 1.
General business rendition deadline Most business personal property renditions are due April 15. A timely written request generally extends the deadline to May 15.
Many exemption and special-appraisal applications The normal deadline applies to many exemption, agricultural, wildlife and special-use filings, subject to late-filing rules.
Regulated-property renditions Property regulated by certain state or federal agencies can use an April 30 deadline and separate extension rules.
Normal appraisal protest deadline File by May 15 or 30 days after CAD mails the notice, whichever date is later.
ARB hearing period Follow the written hearing notice for scheduling, evidence exchange and participation instructions.
Appraisal-roll certification and reporting The CAD Data and Records page publishes certified appraisal-roll information as it becomes available.
Proposed and adopted tax rates The local property-tax database is updated as taxing units consider and adopt 2026 rates.
Tax statements generally begin Confirm the collecting office and payment route because the county Tax Assessor-Collector does not collect property taxes.
Normal 2026 tax-year payment timing January 31, 2027 is a Sunday, so the next-business-day rule generally moves timely payment to February 1, 2027. Verify the statement.
The account-specific notice, form, hearing order or tax statement controls. General dates do not replace a later mailing date, approved extension, special-property deadline or postponed delinquency date.

How this Collingsworth County guide was improved

Mahesh Kumar, editor of AppraisalDistrict.org

Independent review focused on complete user tasks

This version preserves the original property-search screenshot while rebuilding the page around exact 2026 tasks: account classification, owner and property search, rural and mineral troubleshooting, exemptions, the new business-personal-property rules, agricultural appraisal, protests, tax collection and recorded documents.

It also corrects a locally important routing issue that can otherwise send property owners to the wrong office: the county Tax Assessor-Collector does not collect property taxes.

AppraisalDistrict.org is an independent informational website and is not operated by Collingsworth County Appraisal District, Collingsworth County or the Texas Comptroller.
