Spring has arrived in West Texas—and along with the wildflowers and unpredictable weather come two things you definitely don’t want to ignore.

Appraisal Notices Are Here (Like a Surprise Bill You Didn’t Ask For)
Yes, your Tom Green County property appraisal notice has likely made its way to your mailbox. If you took one look at it and nearly spit out your sweet tea, you’re not alone.
Good news: you can protest it—but you’ve got to act fast. The deadline is May 21 (check your notice for your exact date).
Head over to tomgreencad.com to find your current value and get the protest form. 

Haven’t Voted Yet? You’ve Got One More Shot!
Early voting is wrapped up, but Saturday, May 3rd is your last chance to vote on bonds and local elections. If you’re still on the fence, consider this your friendly nudge—or an aggressively polite shove—to show up and be counted.

Why This Matters for Real Estate
Whether you’re a homeowner, investor, or thinking about buying, both of these deadlines can directly impact your wallet and community. Your property value affects your taxes—and your protest could save you money. And those local elections? They shape everything from school zones to infrastructure—key factors in property values and market trends.

In short: stay active, stay informed, and protect your investment. Real estate isn’t just about buying and selling—it’s about being part of the bigger picture.
