Match the Right Willacy CAD Account Before You File, Protest or Pay

Willacy County property records are not limited to houses and ordinary city lots. The official search separates real property, business personal property, mineral interests, auto accounts and mobile homes, with additional filters for abstracts, subdivisions, condominiums, mobile-home parks and appraisal-review records.

Use this guide to find the account, confirm that you selected the right property type and year, understand the values, check exemptions, prepare evidence, pay the correct tax account and locate recorded deed information.

Use the poster as a reminder, not as the live record

Open the official search portal whenever you need a current owner entry, account number, legal description, value, exemption or protest status.

After opening the account, verify the property type, appraisal year, property ID and geographic ID before comparing the result with a tax bill or deed.

Open the live property search
ARB Search is not the normal property lookup. Use it for protest and hearing-related research. Begin with Owner, Address or ID when you simply need the appraisal account.
Select before searching

Willacy CAD separates five property-account types

Land and buildings

Homes, city lots, agricultural land, commercial real estate and other real property.

Search with: owner, address, property ID, geographic ID, abstract or subdivision.

Business personal property

Income-producing equipment, furniture, fixtures, inventory and other taxable business assets.

Search with: business name, owner, property ID, situs or DBA.

Mineral interests

Oil, gas and mineral accounts that may not correspond to the surface owner or normal street address.

Search with: owner, property ID or geographic ID.

Dealer inventory accounts

Motor-vehicle inventory and related dealer property-tax accounts.

Search with: dealer or business name, owner ID or property ID.

Manufactured housing

Mobile-home accounts that may use an owner, property ID, park name or situs different from ordinary real property.

Search with: owner, property ID, mobile-home park or Advanced Search.

Protest and hearing records

Fields include protest status, informal date, formal date, hearing date and board-member information.

Use for: appraisal-review research rather than a normal ownership lookup.

10 essential record attributes

Check these 10 Willacy CAD fields before relying on the result

1. Property ID

The appraisal-account identifier. Save it for calls, forms, protests, maps and tax research.

2. Geographic ID

A parcel or geographic identifier that helps connect the account with map and location information.

3. Owner and owner ID

The owner entry carried for appraisal administration. It is not a complete title or deed history.

4. Property type

Confirm Real, Personal, Mineral, Auto or Mobile Home before comparing value or ownership.

5. Situs address

The physical property location carried by CAD. It may differ from the mailing or emergency-service address.

6. Legal description

Review the abstract, subdivision, condominium, lot, block, tract or other legal reference.

7. Land and improvement details

Check acreage, land class, buildings, mobile homes, square footage, condition and construction details.

8. Market and appraised value

Market value reflects the district’s value opinion; appraised value may reflect a statutory limitation or special appraisal.

9. Taxable value and exemptions

Taxable value reflects applicable exemptions and may differ between taxing units.

10. Tax year and certification status

Confirm the appraisal year and whether the values remain preliminary, under review or certified.

Search troubleshooting

Fix a Willacy CAD search that returns no account

Change one search variable at a time
Problem Likely reason Best next search
Owner name shows nothing The record may use a spouse, estate, trust, business, abbreviation or different name order. Use only the first or last name, then try owner ID or property ID.
Address is not recognised The situs may differ from Google Maps or the mailing address. Use only the street name, property ID, geographic ID or map.
Rural property is missing The account may be indexed by abstract, subdivision or legal description. Use Advanced Search and the interactive map.
Mobile home does not appear The search remains set to Real or the home is indexed by park or owner. Select Mobile Home and try the park, owner or property ID.
Mineral record is missing The account is not indexed as ordinary surface real estate. Select Mineral and search the owner, property ID or geographic ID.
Business account is missing The search uses the real-property owner instead of the business name or DBA. Select Personal and try the business name, DBA or owner ID.
Prior owner remains displayed The deed may still be processing or the wrong appraisal year is selected. Confirm County Clerk recording and contact CAD with the document details.
A valid record looks incomplete The current value may remain preliminary or an update may not yet be posted. Save the result, confirm the year and contact CAD with the exact missing field.
Too many results appear The name or street search is too broad. Add property type, city, abstract, subdivision, owner ID or geographic ID.
Call script for a missing or incorrect account
I am researching tax year [year] for property ID [number] or geographic ID [number]. The account should be [Real, Personal, Mineral, Auto or Mobile Home]. I searched by [method], but the portal shows [exact problem]. The property location or legal description is [details]. Which identifier or document should I use?
Local search situations

Search tips for Willacy County communities and property types

Raymondville home or lot

Start with the street number and street name, then verify subdivision, legal description, property ID and exemptions.

Lyford or Sebastian property

Search the owner and street name, then use the map when the situs wording differs from the mailing address.

San Perlita or Lasara acreage

Use property ID, geographic ID, abstract, subdivision and map instead of relying only on a rural address.

Port Mansfield property

Confirm the parcel, subdivision, improvements and taxing units before comparing value with inland property.

Mobile-home park account

Select Mobile Home and use the park field, owner, property ID and manufactured-housing documents.

Agricultural land

Review total acreage, homesite acreage, land use, productivity value and application status separately.

Mineral interest

Do not expect the mineral owner to match the surface owner. Select Mineral and verify the account identifiers.

Inherited property

Search the deceased owner, estate, heirs and prior year, then verify probate and deed documents.

Business property

Select Personal and confirm the business name, DBA, situs, equipment, inventory and rendition year.

Value interpretation

Read the property facts before focusing on the total value

STEP 1 Market value

The appraisal district’s opinion of market value for the appraisal date.

STEP 2 Appraised value

The value after an applicable appraisal limitation or special appraisal rule.

STEP 3 Taxable value

The value remaining after exemptions for an individual taxing unit.

Review the components that can explain a value change
Account area What to inspect Useful evidence
Land Acreage, land class, homesite, agricultural use, coastal or rural location and parcel identity. Survey, deed, map, lease, agricultural records and comparable land sales.
Building Square footage, age, class, condition, additions, demolition and completion percentage. Measurements, photographs, plans, permits and repair estimates.
Mobile home Make, model, year, size, condition, location, ownership and park information. Statement of Ownership, title documents, photographs and serial information.
Exemptions Homestead, age, disability, veteran, charitable or other approved exemption. Application, confirmation, identification and qualification documents.
Special appraisal Agricultural or wildlife qualification, productivity value, acreage and use. Use history, leases, livestock or crop records, maps and management plan.
A high tax bill is not by itself evidence that the CAD value is wrong. The bill can also be affected by tax rates, missing exemptions, prior balances, penalties, escrow activity and payment history.
2026 specialised capitalisation rate: Willacy CAD publishes a basic 10% capitalisation rate for tax year 2026 for qualifying rent-restricted properties receiving an exemption under the cited Texas Property Tax Code provision. Individual-property adjustments may apply.

Correct office first

Send each Willacy County question to the record holder

Which office controls the answer?
Your question Correct office What to prepare
What is the property’s appraised value? Willacy County Appraisal District Property ID, geographic ID, tax year and property type.
Why is an exemption missing? Willacy County Appraisal District Application, identification, qualification date and submission proof.
How much property tax is due? Willacy County Tax Assessor-Collector Tax account, owner, tax year, statement and intended payment date.
Did my tax payment post? Willacy County Tax Assessor-Collector Confirmation, amount, date, payment method and tax account.
Who legally owns the property? Willacy County Clerk or title professional Grantor, grantee, date range, legal description and deed details.
Where can I obtain a deed or lien copy? Willacy County Clerk Names, recording date, legal description and document type.
Is the CAD parcel boundary legally correct? Surveyor and title professional Deed, plat, prior survey and CAD map.
Do I need a building or mobile-home permit? Willacy County Permits or the applicable city Property location, parcel information and project description.
Willacy County publishes residential, commercial, electrical, plumbing, mechanical, sewage, demolition, manufactured-home, moving, utility and subdivision permit materials. Permit submissions are handled through the county process rather than Willacy CAD.
Open Willacy County permits
Account corrections

Correct the database that controls the inaccurate field

Incorrect owner name Confirm the recorded deed or probate document, save the recording details and ask CAD what ownership evidence is required.
Incorrect mailing address Submit the appropriate address-change information to CAD and confirm whether the Tax Office also needs an update.
Incorrect situs address Determine whether the issue belongs to CAD, the applicable city, emergency addressing or another county department.
Incorrect acreage or legal description Compare the deed, survey, map and abstract before requesting a correction.
Incorrect improvement details Prepare measurements, photographs, permits, demolition evidence, plans or repair information.
Incorrect tax balance Contact the Tax Office with the receipt, payment confirmation, account and tax year.
A correction request does not automatically protect the protest deadline. File a timely protest when the issue is a protestable CAD action and the correction has not been completed before the deadline.
Applications and tax relief

Use the official Willacy CAD form that matches the qualification

Residence homestead

Confirm principal-residence status, ownership, property ID and identification requirements.

Age 65 or older

Review the additional exemption, school-tax ceiling, identification and qualification date.

Disabled person

Prepare eligibility documentation and review the available residence-homestead benefits.

Disabled veteran

Use the correct veteran or survivor application and attach the required VA documentation.

Agricultural or wildlife appraisal

Prepare acreage, use history, leases, production evidence, maps and the required management material.

Other exemptions

The forms page includes charitable, religious, cemetery, solar or wind, vehicle, Freeport and other specialised applications.

What to prepare before filing

Property ID and geographic ID
Owner name and property type
Property and mailing addresses
Texas driver licence or approved identification
Qualification or occupancy date
Age, disability or VA documentation
Deed, heirship or ownership records
Complete copy and delivery confirmation
Willacy CAD states that homestead applications must be accompanied by a copy of the applicant’s driver licence or other information required by the Texas Property Tax Code. An affidavit may also be required in certain situations.
Open Willacy CAD forms Review Texas exemption guidance
Missed the normal filing date? Some homestead, age, disability, veteran and other applications have statutory late-filing provisions. Ask CAD which tax years and penalties apply.
Rural and open-space property

Review agricultural appraisal separately from market value

Qualifying agricultural or open-space land may be appraised using productivity value, but the account can still display a separate market value. The property must continue to satisfy the applicable use and history requirements.

Open the Real property account Confirm the total acreage, homesite acreage, land segments, market value and productivity value.
Check the map and legal description Make sure the application covers the intended tract rather than an adjacent or parent parcel.
Download the agricultural application Willacy CAD links the 1-d-1 application and Texas agricultural guidelines. Open agricultural forms
Document the qualifying use Prepare use history, leases, crop or livestock records, photographs, maps and other relevant evidence.
Separate the homesite A residence and surrounding homesite may be appraised differently from qualifying agricultural land.
Check change-of-use consequences Ask about additional tax exposure before changing the land use, developing the property or ending qualifying activity.
Agricultural appraisal does not automatically continue unchanged after a sale. Review ownership, continued use, application requirements and potential change-of-use consequences during due diligence.
Manufactured housing

Match the mobile-home account to the structure and its location

Select Mobile Home as the property type Do not assume the structure appears under ordinary Real property.
Search the owner and property ID Try the owner’s current and prior name when ownership recently changed.
Use the Mobile Home Park filter Advanced Search includes a list of mobile-home parks that can help narrow the account.
Compare the physical description Check year, size, make, model, location, condition and identifying information.
Verify ownership documents Compare the CAD account with the Texas manufactured-housing Statement of Ownership and applicable title documents.
Check whether the land and home are separate The land owner and mobile-home owner may differ, particularly in a park or leased-site arrangement.
A bill of sale may not be enough to update a manufactured-home account. Ask Willacy CAD which state ownership document and identification are required.
Business personal property

Match the rendition to the Personal property account

A rendition reports taxable business assets used to produce income. Confirm the account, business name, DBA and situs before filing.

Business legal name and DBA
Owner ID and property ID
Physical business location
Asset list as of January 1
Furniture, fixtures and equipment
Inventory and supplies
Leased or consigned assets
Acquisition dates and original costs
General rendition deadline: most business-personal-property renditions were due April 15, 2026. A timely written extension request generally moved the deadline to May 15.
A required rendition filed late can result in a statutory penalty. Preserve the submission confirmation and any written extension request.

Appraisal review

Build a Willacy CAD protest around one clear account problem

Usual protest deadline: most 2026 protests were due by May 15 or 30 days after the appraisal notice was delivered, whichever date was later. A later or corrected notice can create a different deadline.
Save the notice and complete property account Keep the property ID, geographic ID, owner, legal description, property type, values, exemptions and notice date.
Identify the exact protest reason Examples include market value, unequal appraisal, wrong acreage, incorrect improvement details, denied exemption, denied agricultural appraisal or another CAD action.
Open the online protest service Use the official eProtest portal when the property and year are eligible. Open Willacy CAD Online Protest
Use the Notice of Protest form when needed Willacy CAD’s forms page links the official protest form and taxpayer-rights material.
Keep proof of timely filing Save the portal confirmation, email, fax receipt, certified-mail tracking or stamped copy.
Organise evidence around the issue Use comparable sales, unequal-appraisal examples, dated photographs, repair estimates, measurements, surveys, agricultural records or exemption documents.
Request and review CAD evidence Compare the district’s property details, schedules, sales and calculations with your evidence.
Attempt an informal resolution Explain the requested correction clearly and review any proposed adjustment.
Prepare for the ARB hearing Lead with the exact account error, requested result and strongest supporting document.
Read the written order and appeal instructions Preserve the order and promptly review any available arbitration or court deadline.

Evidence by property type

Use evidence that matches the account
Property type Useful evidence Common mistake
House or city property Comparable sales, photographs, repair estimates, measurements and property-detail corrections. Comparing sale prices without considering size, condition, location or improvements.
Rural or agricultural Acreage, use history, maps, leases, production records, land class and comparable land sales. Arguing only that the tax bill is high.
Mobile home Statement of Ownership, year, make, model, size, condition photographs and location documents. Using the land account instead of the separate mobile-home account.
Business personal property Asset list, costs, acquisition dates, condition, obsolescence, inventory and depreciation. Submitting only a total value without identifying disputed assets.

4. Are Willacy CAD 2026 values final?
