Important Corrections and Missing Information on the Existing Page

Existing Page Detail Current Practical Information Why It Matters
May 15 presented as one fixed 2026 deadline The usual deadline is May 15 or 30 days after the appraisal notice was delivered, whichever is later. The exact date printed on an owner’s notice controls the ordinary filing window.
2026 value treated as final The official search currently labels 2026 values preliminary and subject to change before certification. The displayed value may change through review, protest or certification.
GIS described as showing exact boundaries and flood zones The GIS is an appraisal-location tool, not a survey, title report or official flood determination. Fencing, building, lending and flood decisions require other official or professional records.
Search described only by owner, address and account Advanced search supports abstract, mobile-home park, property type, DBA, subdivision, condo, Owner ID, Geographic ID, neighborhood and tax year. Rural, business, mineral and mobile-home records often require advanced fields.
Property types not explained The portal separates Real, Personal, Mineral, Auto and Mobile Home accounts. One owner may have several independent appraisal accounts.
No taxpayer-portal workflow The district provides a portal for property details, electronic communication, documents and applications. New registrations may remain pending until district approval, so enrollment should not be left until a deadline.
No current circuit-breaker notice Burleson CAD reports a programming issue that may hide the circuit-breaker exemption for the Hospital jurisdiction on some notices. When the limitation appears for the County jurisdiction, the district says the Hospital adjustment will be applied at certification without a protest on that issue.
Agricultural land covered only generally Burleson CAD publishes local agricultural qualification, wildlife, timber and beekeeping resources. Rural ownership alone does not establish special appraisal.
Appraisal search and tax payment mixed together The County Tax Office operates a separate tax search and payment system and accepts partial payments. A CAD record does not prove that a tax bill is paid.
No complete deed-search workflow The County Clerk provides official records from 1940 forward through a separate public-search system and offers Property Alert registration. The appraisal owner field is not a complete title or lien search.
The page needed more than a basic update. Its core contact information was usable, but the search, GIS, preliminary-value, taxpayer-portal, circuit-breaker, agricultural, tax and deed workflows were incomplete or misleading.

Choose Your Burleson County Property Task

Which Office Handles the Property Task?

Burleson County Appraisal District Property searches, market values, GIS, exemptions, agricultural appraisal, renditions and protests.
Appraisal Review Board Formal hearings about value, unequal appraisal, exemptions and other protestable appraisal actions.

Property-Tax Professional Complex ARB, arbitration, court appeal, rollback-tax, mineral or industrial matters.
Fast routing tip Start every call with the Property ID and account type. One owner may have separate home, acreage, timber, mineral, mobile-home and business-personal-property accounts.

What to Try When the Property Search Returns No Result

Search Problem Better Method Why It Works
Full owner name fails Use only the surname or first name. Initials, spouses and suffixes may be stored differently.
Recent buyer is missing Search the seller or previous owner. Ownership maintenance may lag behind deed recording.
Rural tract has no useful address Use abstract, Geographic ID, legal description or GIS. Rural accounts may be organized around survey information.
Only one acreage account appears Repeat the owner search and compare all Property IDs. One operation may contain multiple tracts.
Mobile home is missing Choose Mobile Home and search the homeowner, landowner or park. The structure can be appraised separately from the land.
Business equipment is missing Choose Personal and search the DBA or business owner. Equipment is normally separate from the real-estate account.
Mineral account is missing Choose Mineral and search the mineral owner, estate, trust or entity. Surface ownership and mineral ownership can be different.
Property near Lake Somerville is missing Verify the county and appraisal district before searching again. A familiar mailing area does not always prove the parcel is inside Burleson County.
“I am trying to locate a Burleson County appraisal account. The current or former owner is ______. The property is near ______. I believe it is a real / personal / mineral / mobile-home account. My legal-description or Property ID clue is ______.”
Still cannot find it? Call Burleson CAD at 979-567-2318 or submit the official information-request form.

How to Read a Burleson CAD Property Record

Record Field Meaning Practical Check
Property ID Primary appraisal-account identifier. Use it on calls, applications, protests and tax searches.
Owner ID Identifier attached to the owner record. One owner can have several Property IDs.
Geographic ID Map-oriented parcel identifier. Useful for rural property without a complete address.
Legal Description Appraisal summary of abstract, survey, subdivision, lot or tract. Verify against the recorded deed before legal use.
Agricultural Market Valuation Market-value component associated with land receiving special appraisal. Compare it with the agricultural value loss and appraised value.
Market Value District opinion of January 1 market value. The official search currently labels 2026 values preliminary.
Agricultural Value Loss Difference attributable to qualifying productivity appraisal. A large reduction can disappear after a disqualifying use change.
HS Cap Loss Value excluded by the residence-homestead appraisal limitation. It does not mean the market value was reduced.
Circuit Breaker Temporary limitation for certain eligible non-homestead real property. Review Burleson CAD’s 2026 Hospital-jurisdiction notice before protesting only this display issue.
Assessed or Taxable Value Value after applicable limitations and exemptions. The final taxable value can differ among taxing entities.
Official search warning: Burleson CAD states that online legal descriptions and acreage are for appraisal use and should be verified before use in legal documents.

How to Use the Burleson County Interactive GIS Map

1
Find the appraisal account first.

Copy the Property ID, Geographic ID, acreage and legal-description clues.

2
Open the official BIS interactive map.

Use the current GIS link from the Burleson CAD homepage.

3
Locate the general parcel area.

Use roads, subdivisions, adjoining accounts and visible land features.

4
Compare nearby Property IDs.

This helps identify divided acreage, family tracts, mobile homes and access strips.

5
Save a dated screenshot.

Label it with the Property ID and use it as a research exhibit, not a legal survey.

GIS can help with
  • General parcel location
  • Adjoining appraisal accounts
  • Road and subdivision context
  • Rural land without an address
  • Preliminary acreage review
GIS cannot prove
  • Exact legal boundaries
  • Clear title
  • Legal road access
  • Mineral ownership
  • Official flood status
Flood-risk check: Use the official FEMA Map Service Center, lender flood determination, survey and local development information. Do not rely only on the appraisal map.

Preliminary 2026 Values, Caps and the Hospital Circuit-Breaker Notice

Preliminary Market Value → Agricultural Value or Appraisal Limitation → Exemptions → Taxable Value
Preliminary 2026 value The current official search says 2026 values remain subject to change before certification.
Homestead limitation A qualifying limitation generally affects appraised value, not the market-value line.
2026 circuit breaker Certain non-homestead real property valued at $5,320,000 or less may qualify for a 20% annual limitation.
Agricultural productivity value Qualifying land is appraised according to agricultural productivity instead of ordinary market value.
Taxable value Exemptions and limitations can produce different taxable values for different jurisdictions.
Truth in taxation Proposed tax-rate and estimated-tax information is updated later in the tax-rate process.
Burleson CAD’s current circuit-breaker notice: A programming issue may prevent the Hospital jurisdiction’s circuit-breaker exemption from appearing on the Notice of Appraised Value. When the circuit breaker was applied to the County jurisdiction, the district says it will apply the Hospital adjustment at certification and the owner does not need to protest only that issue.
Do not estimate a final bill by multiplying a preliminary value by last year’s rate. The certified value, exemption amounts and adopted 2026 tax rates may differ.
Official estimated-tax action: Open Burleson County Truth in Taxation.

Burleson County Residence Homestead Exemption

Current school-tax exemptions: A qualifying residence homestead receives a $140,000 school-district exemption. A qualifying age-65 or disabled homeowner receives an additional $60,000 school exemption.
1
Open Burleson CAD’s official Forms page.

Use the current General Residence Homestead Exemption application.

2
Confirm ownership and principal residence.

The property must meet Texas residence-homestead requirements.

3
Prepare identification.

Burleson CAD states that homestead applications must include a driver’s-license copy or other required information.

4
Attach any required affidavit.

Additional documents may be needed for inherited property, manufactured housing or an identification-address mismatch.

5
Submit the application to Burleson CAD.

Mail to P.O. Box 1000, Caldwell, TX 77836-1000, or use an official electronic application method when available.

6
Confirm approval.

Check the property record or contact the district. Filing an application does not prove approval.

Missed April 30? Qualifying residence-homestead applications may have statutory late-filing rights. Contact Burleson CAD instead of assuming the exemption is permanently lost.

Agricultural, Wildlife, Timber and Beekeeping Appraisal

Rural ownership alone does not qualify land. Burleson CAD publishes local qualification guidance and provides separate applications or resources for agricultural, wildlife, timber and restricted-use timberland.
Agricultural land Keep production, livestock, lease, expense and management records for each Property ID.
Wildlife management Land generally must first qualify for open-space appraisal and meet planning and activity requirements.
Timberland Ordinary wooded acreage does not automatically qualify. Use the timber application and management evidence.
Beekeeping Review Burleson CAD’s local beekeeping guidance before relying on hives as the qualifying agricultural use.

Evidence File to Keep

  • Farm, grazing or timber leases
  • Livestock purchase and sale records
  • Seed, feed, fertilizer and veterinary invoices
  • Harvest, hay or crop-production records
  • Timber-management or forester records
  • Maps identifying each Property ID
  • Dated property photographs
  • Wildlife plans and annual reports
  • Beekeeping management and hive records
  • Drought, storm or unusual-condition evidence
1
Identify every appraisal account in the operation.

One application does not automatically cover every tract owned by the same person.

2
Read the local qualification guidance.

Match the actual use to the district’s agricultural, timber, wildlife or beekeeping standards.

3
File by the normal April 30 deadline.

Ask promptly about late-filing rules when the normal date has passed.

4
Keep evidence after approval.

The district may review whether the qualifying use continues.

Local land tip Keep records by tract—not only by farm or family name. Invoices covering several properties are less useful when the district needs proof for one specific Property ID.
Change-of-use warning: Converting qualifying land to a nonqualifying use can create additional tax consequences. Ask the district before development or a major land-use change.

Business Personal Property and Mineral Accounts

Business personal property Inventory, machinery, equipment, furniture, computers and other income-producing tangible property may require a rendition.
Mineral, utility and industrial property Burleson CAD states that these specialized accounts are appraised by Pritchard & Abbott.

Business Rendition Steps

1
Choose Personal Property in the search.

Do not use the landlord’s real-estate account for tenant-owned equipment.

2
Prepare a January 1 asset list.

Separate inventory, machinery, furniture, vehicles and other categories.

3
Use acquisition year and original cost where requested.

Keep invoices supporting age, condition and obsolescence.

4
Save the filed rendition and delivery proof.

Keep the final form and supporting asset schedule together.

2026 small-account exemption: Income-producing tangible personal property with total taxable value of $125,000 or less in a taxing unit may qualify for exemption.
Rendition deadline: Most 2026 business renditions were due April 15. A timely written extension request generally moved the date to May 15. Late filing can create a penalty.

Mineral Search Steps

1
Select Mineral Property.

A real-estate search may not show a mineral interest.

2
Search the mineral owner and prior owner.

Try trusts, estates, royalty entities and company names.

3
Open every related mineral account.

One owner may hold interests in several leases, wells or units.

Mineral-title warning: A mineral appraisal account is not a mineral-title opinion. Review County Clerk records and obtain professional help when ownership certainty matters.
Official business action: Open Burleson CAD Rendition Forms.

How to Prepare a Burleson County Appraisal Protest

Use the deadline printed on your Notice of Appraised Value. The usual deadline is May 15 or 30 days after delivery of the appraisal notice, whichever is later. By July 20, 2026, the ordinary deadline has passed for many accounts.
1
Save the notice and current property record.

Record the Property ID, proposed value, exemptions and exact deadline.

2
Identify every genuine protest ground.

Possible grounds include market value, unequal appraisal, incorrect property data, missing exemption or denied special appraisal.

3
Check the circuit-breaker notice first.

Do not file only because the Hospital-jurisdiction circuit breaker is missing when the district’s current notice says it will be applied at certification.

4
File through an official method.

Use the district’s online-protest route, Notice of Protest form, mail or in-person delivery.

5
Save filing proof.

Keep the online confirmation, screenshot, certified-mail receipt or stamped copy.

6
Request the district’s evidence.

Ask for comparable properties, schedules, photos and other information the district intends to use.

7
Build property-specific evidence.

Use condition photos, repair estimates, corrected measurements, adjusted comparable records, agricultural evidence or business asset details.

8
State the requested correction.

Show the district value, requested value and evidence supporting the change.

9
Continue to the ARB if unresolved.

Organize exhibits in presentation order and review the written ARB decision immediately.

Property Type Useful Evidence Weak Evidence
House Condition photos, repair bids, size corrections and adjusted comparable properties. Mortgage balance or tax increase alone.
Farm or ranch Access, soil, water, fencing, topography, productivity and comparable-land adjustments. Comparing unrestricted road frontage with an interior tract.
Timber property Stand age, species, stocking, access, management expense and harvest history. A general claim that every wooded tract has the same value.
Business property Asset list, acquisition cost, age, condition, depreciation and obsolescence. An unsupported lump-sum value.
ARB presentation tip Lead with the error, requested value and strongest exhibit. Do not make the ARB search through an unorganized packet to discover the argument.

Possible Options After a Filing Deadline

Possible Remedy When It May Apply Important Limit
Late protest for good cause The ordinary deadline was missed for a qualifying reason. A request generally must be made before ARB approval of the appraisal records.
Failure to receive required notice A legally required CAD or ARB notice was not received. Special filing and tax-payment requirements apply.
Late homestead application The homeowner qualified but missed the normal filing date. File within the applicable statutory late-filing period.
Late agricultural or timber application The land qualified but the normal application was late. Approval may include a penalty based on tax savings.
Appraisal-roll correction A qualifying ownership, clerical, duplicate-appraisal or substantial over-appraisal issue exists. An ordinary value disagreement is not automatically a clerical error.
Act immediately. Call Burleson CAD and identify the exact notice, application or protest involved. An ordinary form submitted late does not automatically create a valid hearing.

How to Search and Pay Burleson County Property Taxes

Separate office: Burleson CAD appraises property. Jessica Lucero’s County Tax Office collects, records and distributes property taxes after receiving the certified roll.
1
Copy the CAD Property ID and owner name.

The Tax Office record may use a related but separate account reference.

2
Open the official tax search.

Search by owner, address, Property ID or Advanced criteria.

3
Choose the correct property type and year.

The tax portal includes Real, Personal, Mineral, Auto and Mobile Home filters.

4
Review every unpaid year.

Paying one year does not automatically clear an earlier delinquency.

5
Choose full or partial payment.

The Tax Office states that partial payments are accepted and applied proportionally to tax, penalty, interest and collection penalty when applicable.

6
Save the confirmation and verify posting.

Keep the account, tax year, amount, payment date and confirmation reference.

Burleson County Tax Office Jessica Lucero, Tax Assessor-Collector
100 W. Buck St., Suite 202
Caldwell, TX 77836
Phone: 979-567-2326
Email: JLucero@burlesoncounty.org
Tax Office hours Monday–Friday
8:00 a.m.–4:45 p.m.

Online tax records currently list years through 2025 because the 2026 tax roll is not billed until later in the collection cycle.
Current delinquency warning: As of July 2026, unpaid 2025 taxes may include penalty, interest and collection costs. Request a current payoff instead of relying on an old statement.

How to Search Burleson County Deeds, Liens and Easements

Online coverage: The County Clerk states that recorded-document records from 1940 to the present are available through the official public-search system.
1
Collect the CAD clues.

Save the current owner, previous owner, Property ID, legal description and acreage.

2
Open the official records search.

Use Quick Search for a broad search or Advanced Search for more control.

3
Search grantor and grantee names separately.

Try individuals, spouses, trusts, estates, businesses and former owners.

4
Choose the appropriate search scope.

Search Index Only for indexed names and fields. Search Index & Full Text when document wording may contain the needed phrase.

5
Review relevant document types.

Look for deeds, deeds of trust, releases, liens, easements, plats, mineral documents and assignments.

6
Match the legal description.

A matching name does not prove the record concerns the same property.

7
Order the correct copy.

Use a certified copy when a lender, court, probate matter or legal process requires certification.

Burleson County Clerk: Anna L. Schielack, 100 W. Buck Street, Suite 203, Caldwell, TX 77836. Phone 979-567-2329. Office hours are Monday–Friday, 8:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m.
Record-search tip Work backward from a known recent deed. Prior-owner names, legal descriptions and referenced instruments often unlock the older chain faster than a broad name search.
Title warning: An online record search does not guarantee clear title. Use a title company, surveyor, landman or attorney when legal certainty is required.
