A note on Tarrant County. Starting in 2024, Tarrant Appraisal District froze residential values, starting with the 2024 final values being identical to the 2025 notices. So, every reduction starts from where the last one ended. The savings compound year over year, and each year there is less left on the notice to take because a reduction was received in the previous year's protest. A Tarrant result that looks small on its own usually sits on top of 2 years of earlier reductions with no increase in the notice value.
