Who Handles Your Property Tax in McMullen County

McMullen County has a separate appraisal district and tax office — you deal with each for different tasks.

The McMullen County Appraisal District sets the value of your property. It is located at 207 Ash St. in Tilden. If you disagree with your value, you file a protest with the appraisal district. The homestead exemption application also goes here. The state requires school districts to give homeowners a $140,000 homestead exemption on their school taxes. Contact the appraisal district to file that form.

The Tax Assessor-Collector's office is a separate office. It collects the tax bill once the value is set. It is at 501 River St. in Tilden. If you want to know what you owe or need to pay, that is your contact. Deadlines and rates change each year. Check the Texas Comptroller's county directory for the most current information.
