Most firms accept cancellation by email, phone, or written notice. Check your agreement for specific terms. Many firms auto-renew in January-March, so canceling now — before the 2026 season — ensures a clean switch. If your current firm has already filed for 2026, you may need to wait until 2027 to switch.
If your current firm has already filed a protest for 2026, it's generally best to let them finish and cancel before the 2027 season. If they haven't filed yet, you can cancel and sign up with us immediately. We'll check your HCAD account to see if a protest has been filed.
No — our lower rate reflects our focused, efficient operation, not lower quality. We build more comprehensive evidence packages (8 sections including comps, equity, active listings, expired listings, cost-to-cure, and market trends) than most firms. Our singular focus on HCAD means we know this system better than anyone.
Most property tax protest agreements allow cancellation with written notice — they can't force you to use their services forever. Review your current agreement, send the required notice, and sign up with us when your contract allows. We can help you navigate this if needed.
No payment now. We handle the transition and fight for you starting this season.
