OUR MISSION
The Property Tax Justice Foundation exists to educate, empower, and impact homeowners through greater understanding of the property tax valuation and protest systems, helping them confidently challenge inaccurate assessments while advancing fair, transparent, and accountable property taxation practices.
OUR VISION
A Texas free from property taxes — and until then, a Texas where no homeowner loses their home because they did not know how to challenge an unfair or inaccurate property tax assessment.
Justice Shouldn’t Have a Price Tag
It isn’t only for those who can afford it.
If our standard fees feel out of reach, ask about our sliding scale. If you’re facing serious financial hardship, representation scholarships may be available.
No documentation required. No judgment. Just tell us where you’re at.
Education Is Powerful
The Property Tax Justice Foundation believes
education is the foundation of justice.
Knowledge opens doors that would otherwise remain closed. It creates opportunities, builds confidence, and equips people to make informed decisions about matters that directly affect their lives and finances.
Unfortunately, the property tax system was not designed to be easily understood by the average homeowner. Deadlines, procedures, valuation methods, exemptions, evidence requirements, and appeal options can quickly become overwhelming. As a result, many taxpayers begin the process at a disadvantage before they ever file a protest.
Adding to the confusion is the constant flood of information shared through social media, neighborhood groups, and online forums. Some of it is helpful. Some of it is outdated. Some of it is simply incorrect. For many property owners, knowing what to believe becomes almost as challenging as understanding the system itself.
That is why the Property Tax Justice Foundation provides educational resources and community workshops at no cost to Texas property owners.
As a former Appraisal Review Board member, Licensed Texas Property Tax Consultant, educator, advocate, and REALTOR®, I have had the unique opportunity to view the property tax process from the inside. My goal is not simply to give homeowners a glimpse behind the curtain. My goal is to pull the curtain back completely and help make a complex system understandable.
When people understand the process, they are better equipped to protect their rights.
When they understand what makes effective evidence, they are better prepared to tell their property’s story.
When they understand their options, they can make informed decisions with confidence.

Evidence + coaching so you walk in ready.
Everything in Level 1, plus a personalized coaching session where we go over the specific conditions of your property and build your rebuttal to the district’s evidence. That preparation is what makes Personalized Coaching different — you don’t just have evidence, you know exactly how to use it.

We handle everything. You don’t lift a finger.
Full research, evidence development, and professional ARB representation from start to finish. This is complete, done-for-you service.
