The Property Tax Assistance Division (PTAD) certified the 2024 School District Property Value Study (SDPVS) final findings to the commissioner of education on Aug. 15 – of the 694 school district splits studied in this cycle, 604 received valid findings; 16 qualified for year one of the grace period; 7 qualified for year two of the grace period; 49 received state value; and 18 had local value that was greater than state value.
Districts that receive three consecutive invalid final findings initiate a Targeted Appraisal Review (TARP). On October 7 the PTAD posted the following 2024 TARP reports.
Additionally, the preliminary Methods and Assistance Program (MAP) reports were released to appraisal districts on Sept. 15. Appraisal districts must submit all remaining data for their final 2025 MAP reports by Nov. 1. PTAD will issue final 2025 MAP reports in January 2026. Appraisal districts scheduled for 2026 MAP reviews will receive a preliminary data request list in mid-October with an early December due date.
PTAD has also published the 2025 Texas Property Tax Law Changes to summarize updates passed during the session.
