There are often issues other than tax value that concern property owners, such as:

• The amount of change from the last reappraisal

• Affordability of the expected taxes

• 提供的服务水平

While these are all understandable concerns, the only issue the tax office can address is the appraised value.

There are different appeal procedures, depending on whether the property  real property (land, 建筑, and other land improvements) or personal property/motor vehicles.

个人财产 and 机动车辆

个人财产(e).g., 船舶, 飞机, 某些人造房屋, 未登记机动车辆, business equipment) and registered motor vehicles (which are treated a little differently for property tax purposes) are reappraised every year. 

Personal property and motor vehicle appeals must generally be filed within 30 days of the date of the bill.  If a separate written notice of value (other than the bill) was sent to you, then the appeal must be filed within 30 days of the date of that notice.
