Fort Cavazos Area Homeowners
Bell County's proximity to Fort Cavazos creates a high-velocity real estate market in Killeen and Harker Heights. BCAD's mass appraisal algorithm often uses recent sale prices from this fast-moving market to push values up — even for homeowners who are not selling. If your home was appraised based on comparables from a market segment that does not match your property, you have a strong Equal and Uniform argument.
Parity pulls BCAD's own comparable data and runs the statutory adjustment grid. If your value is out of line with your actual neighbors, it will show up in the analysis.
Enter your address. Get your result. File before May 15th.
