Property Tax

Two Separate Offices Handle Property Taxes Here

Schleicher County has two separate offices for property taxes — one sets your value, the other collects the bill.

The Schleicher County Appraisal District (CAD) decides what your property is worth for tax purposes. It is at 1 W. Warner Ave. in Eldorado. The phone is 325-853-2617. This office also handles homestead exemption applications.

A separate office — the Tax Assessor-Collector at 2 S. Divide St. — sends your bill and takes your payment. These are two different offices with different staff. If you think your value is wrong, you protest with the CAD. If you have a question about your bill or payment, you call the tax office. Check the Texas Comptroller's county directory to confirm current contact details before you visit.
