Methodology & sources. Medians, year-over-year change, and protest rates are computed from CCAD's 2025–2026 public appraisal rolls for every single-family residential parcel in Collin County (371,177 homes). Sources: Collin Central Appraisal District (accessed September 21, 2026) · CCAD property search · Collin County Tax Assessor-Collector · Texas Comptroller protest guide. housegeek aggregates these public records for informational purposes only and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Collin Central Appraisal District, any taxing unit, or the Collin County Tax Assessor-Collector.

How we calculate the year-over-year change. Real estate values are heavily right-skewed: most homes move within a narrow band each year while a handful jump due to reassessments, renovations, or cap resets. An arithmetic average gets pulled by those few large moves and overstates what the typical homeowner saw. We report the median instead, which reflects the middle home in the area. This matches industry convention (Zillow, Redfin, FHFA, Case-Shiller, the Texas Comptroller) and tells you what to expect for a home like yours.

How to read these figures. These are area-wide medians, not a prediction for any single home. Appraisal districts do not apply one flat percentage across the board. Each home is valued on its own characteristics using standard appraisal methods, so your notice can move differently from the numbers here. Treat this as a starting point for whether a protest is worth a closer look, not an estimate of your own value.
