How many of you are surprised at the increase in your appraisal?
We closed on our house April 6, 2015. Our 2015 appraisal was $250,000 and our 2016 appraisal is now $295,000.
For some reason we weren't given a Homestead Cap Loss for 2016, even though our appraisal form shows that it was applied last year.
UPDATE: just got off phone with WCAD and the Homestead Cap does not apply to the first full year we occupy the residence. Which means not only do we not get the Homestead reduction but we also don't qualify for the 10% max increase in appraisal value.
