Sounds like the property may have been advertised incorrectly. It should definitely be corrected next time it is listed at the latest

Hey Roberto, Great Question. Follow the provided link to access all the forms available through HCAD (Harris County Appraisal District at the bottom of this answer). Among these forms, locate the correction form to make any required adjustments. A word of advice tho: Exercise caution when requesting changes, as they may result in an increase in your property's assessed value and subsequently, higher tax obligations. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out to me at 832-696-8100 or Pate@pateherrold-cbarealtors.com

As many people have said, you should ask the appraisal district to correct this. But you should also ask them for a rebate for the amount they potentially over charged you. I believe you can go back 3 years on this.

Remember that the process for updating property details can vary based on your location and the specific procedures of the local appraisal district. It's advisable to reach out to HCAD directly to get accurate information and guidance tailored to your situation.It's generally a good practice to ensure that property details are accurate and up-to-date to avoid any potential issues in the future.

Yes.Contact on HCAD website and ask for correction on items included ,so they adjust amount of tax.

Roberto! Great question! Clearly you came to the right place for answers! The attached link will take you to all forms in HCAD (Harris County Appraisal District). You will be looking for a correction form to address necessary changes! Helpful tip from homeowner to homeowner: be careful with the changes that you request, as these changes could increase your taxable valuation and therefore your tax payments! For example, if county shows too many bedroom (as in your case), you'd want them to correct to the proper amount of bedroom, because it is likely that your property is being overvalued and, in turn, you are being overcharged on your property taxes. However, if the opposite is the case and they list less bedrooms than you actually have, maybe better to leave it alone haha! Remember that taxable valuation and actual market value have NOTHING to do with one another! If you have any other questions, feel free to reach out! Codysellsproperty@gmail.com 346-412-6603

Yes, I would absolutely go to the appraisal district to get these items removed.

Yes, this information needs to be changed. It's important to have a complete correct detail description of your property for tax purpose etc.

It is always a good idea to double check your property tax information is correct. Having the correct information will save you time, money and hassle. If you find an error, you can go the website for the CAD your property is located in. In most cases under "forms" tab you will find a "notice of protest" form. On that form you will find a list of reasons you wish to protest. check "incorrect property description" and then fill out the rest of the form. It is best if you have proof to back up your claim, ie pictures, receipts, survey, floor plan from builder etc.etc.

Go to HCAD's website and there is a form for corrections. These errors often go back to when the home was built ns the appraiser used a similar floor plan which may have had different upgrades and they just assumed all the houses are the same. We see it often with square footage discrepancies where there are bonus rooms built out in attic space.

If you recently bought a home and noticed discrepancies in the property details listed on HCAD.org, such as an extra full bathroom and a fireplace that you don't have, it's important to address it. You can use HCAD's "Real Property Correction Request/Motion" form to request the necessary changes. Provide evidence like photos and a clear description of the corrections you're asking for. This will help ensure the accuracy of your property information on the website. https://hcad.org/assets/uploads/pdf/forms/2022/Correction-Motion-RP-2018-2022_2022-08-24-142746_nvgf.pdf
