FAQ – Request for Information

How can I get information about my property?
There are several methods for property owners to get information from the appraisal district. They can access information by searching at the Coryell CAD website, contact us or visit one of our offices.

Can you give me information on the amount of taxes I owe?
The appraisal district is only responsible for the appraisal of property. For specific information on taxes due or payments made, you will need to contact the Coryell County Tax Office at (254) 248-3142 or visit www.coryellcountytax.com.

I am preparing for my ARB hearing, what information is provided?
The chief appraiser must provide the property owner with any information that he intends to introduce at the ARB formal hearing. This information can include but is not limited to, a list of sales used to value the property, a list of all property in the owners neighborhood, comparable sales grid, comparable equity grid, and an appraisal field card.

Can I get a list of all sales?
The appraisal district is prohibited from disclosing sales information gathered from a private source. Property owners who have protested their property are entitled only to a list of sales used to value their property.

Can I get a copy of the appraisal roll?
Yes. The appraisal roll is available on our website on the Appraisal Roll & Entity Information tab. The export files are txt format with a layout. Special requests must be made in writing with requested parameters and $10 payment.

Can I get a copy of maps?
Our maps are available on our website in the Interactive Map button.  Property owners may also obtain a copy of the appraisal district GIS shape file on the Appraisal Roll & Entity Information tab.

Will GIS data give me ownership and value information?
No, the GIS information is strictly mapping information. For appraisal roll information the property owner would need to also link to the appraisal roll data export.

What is the Public Information Act?
The Public Information Act refers to information that is collected, assembled, or maintained under a law or ordinance or in connection with the transaction of official business: 1) by a governmental body; or 2) for a governmental body and the governmental body owns the information or has a right of access to it. The term is defined in Government Code Section 552.002.

Exceptions to disclosure may include, but is not limited to, private or personal information such as financial or medical information, certain law enforcement information, information related to pending lawsuits, and the home address and telephone information of local government officials or employees.
