Three Approaches to Value
Aligned with Texas Property Tax Code — we build your case using every applicable method.
Equity (Uniform & Equal)

Matches properties by size, age, quality, and land value
Smart adjustments tuned to each neighborhood
Professional comparison grid: size, age, condition, and quality
Market (Sales Comparison)
§23.01What did similar properties actually sell for? We pull from multiple trusted data sources and adjust for key differences to determine your property's true market value.
Multiple data sources cross-referenced for accuracy
Automated adjustments for distance, size, and condition

Income (Direct Capitalization)
