Correct jurisdiction Burleson County CAD Cade Lake Estates is a subdivision, not a separate county or appraisal district.

Current database 2026 values certified The official search provides current and historical property information.

Best subdivision search Use Advanced Search Select Cade Lake Estates, then narrow by lot, owner, street or property ID.

Tax payments County Tax Office Burleson CAD sets values; the Tax Assessor-Collector collects property taxes.

Important correction: there is no Cade Lake County CAD. Cade Lake Estates is located in Burleson County, Texas. The correct appraisal authority is the Burleson County Appraisal District. The previously listed “cadelakecad.org” address is not the official property-record portal.

Exact subdivision workflow

How to Search Cade Lake Estates Property Records

The Burleson CAD system provides Owner, Address, ID and Advanced search options. For a subdivision with many vacant or lightly addressed lots, the subdivision filter is often more useful than a street-address search.

Open the official Burleson CAD property search. Go to esearch.burlesonappraisal.com. The public property lookup does not require payment.

Select Advanced Search. The Advanced screen includes fields for owner, street, property ID, geographic ID, abstract, subdivision, neighborhood, property type and tax year.

Open the Subdivision field. Type CADE LAKE and select the matching Cade Lake Estates subdivision entry from the available list.

Run the broad subdivision search first. Do not add too many filters on the first attempt. Review how Cade Lake legal descriptions and owner names appear in current records.

Narrow the results with reliable information. Add the lot number, owner surname, street name, property ID or geographic ID when the broad search returns many accounts.

Open the correct account. Compare the section, block, lot, owner, situs address, acreage and property ID before relying on the record.

Confirm the tax year. The portal currently states that 2026 values are certified. Select an older year when comparing prior ownership or value history.

Save the property and geographic IDs. These identifiers are more dependable than a vacant-lot street address and make later map, tax and protest work easier.

Print or save a dated copy. Keep the legal description, property ID, value and tax year visible when contacting an office or researching a purchase.

When searching by owner

Enter the surname before the first name.
Try only one name when the full name fails.
Remove punctuation from company names.
Search estates and trusts separately.
Try the previous owner after a recent transfer.

When searching by street

Use only the street name on the first attempt.
Remove Drive, Road, Lane or Circle.
Do not enter a mailing address as the situs.
Vacant lots may have no street number.
Use the subdivision and property-ID fields instead.

Official search warning Burleson CAD states that legal descriptions and acreage shown online are for appraisal-district use and should be independently verified before they are used in legal documents.

Lot, block and section matching

How to Identify the Correct Cade Lake Estates Lot

Cade Lake Estates records can be organized by subdivision section, block and lot. Several adjacent lots may appear on one account, while one owner may have multiple separate accounts.

Information you have	Best search field	What to confirm
Property-ID number	ID or Advanced Search	Match owner, legal description, appraisal year and property type.
Geographic ID	Advanced Search	Use it to connect the record with the correct GIS parcel.
Section and lot	Subdivision plus legal-description review	Confirm every lot number and whether several lots share one account.
Street name	Address or Advanced Search	Vacant parcels may not show a street number.
Owner name	Owner Search	Review every matching Cade Lake account owned by that person or entity.
Deed information	County Clerk records first	Use the recorded instrument to locate the exact section, block and lot.
Online listing description	Do not rely on it alone	Match the listing to the CAD account, deed, plat and survey information.

One account, several lots

A legal description may include a range of lots. Confirm whether the tax balance and value cover all listed lots or only one parcel.

One owner, several accounts

Separate lot groups may have different property IDs, values, tax balances or deed histories.

Vacant-lot addresses

A road or street may appear without a numbered situs. The property ID and legal description are usually safer identifiers.

A low appraised value does not prove that a lot is buildable, accessible or free of title problems. Appraisal value does not confirm zoning, septic approval, flood status, utility availability, legal access, road maintenance, restrictions or insurable title.

Subdivision map workflow

How to Use the Burleson CAD Map for Cade Lake Estates

Find the property account before opening the map. Write down the property ID, geographic ID and full legal description.

Open the official interactive map. Use Burleson CAD’s BIS parcel map.

Search by property or geographic ID. An identifier is more reliable than a vacant-lot address or informal listing description.

Select the parcel and compare the popup. Confirm that the owner, property ID or legal-description information matches the appraisal record.

Review nearby parcels and roads. Check whether the selected lot is surrounded by other lots, common areas, roads or differently owned tracts.

Use map layers separately. Turn parcel, road and aerial layers on one at a time so labels and boundaries remain readable.

Save a screenshot only as preliminary research. Include the property ID and date viewed. Do not treat the screenshot as a survey or deed exhibit.

Parcel lines can be approximate. Use a licensed surveyor and recorded documents before building, fencing, clearing, installing utilities or relying on a claimed access route.

Property ID	Burleson CAD’s unique appraisal-account identifier.	Use it on calls, tax searches, forms, protests and written requests.
Geographic ID	A location-based account reference.	Match it to the selected parcel in the interactive map.
Owner name	The ownership name carried in the appraisal database.	Compare it with the latest recorded deed.

Tax search and payment

How to Pay Taxes on a Cade Lake Estates Lot

Burleson CAD appraises the property. The Burleson County Tax Assessor-Collector collects current and delinquent taxes for the county and participating local taxing units.

Find the correct CAD account. Save the property ID, owner ID, legal description and every lot listed on the account.

Open the official Tax Assessor-Collector page. Use Burleson County’s tax-office page.

Verify the current payoff before paying. Call (979) 567-2326 when the amount, account or delinquency status is unclear.

Have the property ID or owner ID ready. One owner may have several Cade Lake accounts. Confirm every account separately.

Use Bureau Code 4323644 for the official card-payment route. This code is for property-tax payments through the processor linked by the county.

Review the processor’s convenience fee. The convenience charge is separate from the property tax.

Save the confirmation number. The county states that electronic payments are not processed until the next business day.

Verify posting. Keep the parcel ID, owner ID, tax year, payment date, amount and confirmation number.

Partial payments The county Tax Assessor-Collector states that partial property-tax payments are accepted. Confirm how a partial payment will be applied before submitting it.

Delinquent-tax timing Current statements are generally mailed in October. Penalty begins when taxes remain unpaid on February 1, and the county states that a 15% attorney fee is added on July 1.

Estimated entity tax = entity taxable value ÷ 100 × entity tax rate.

Calculate each applicable entity separately. Homestead and other exemptions can cause the taxable value to differ from one entity to another.

Applications and filing preparation

Cade Lake Homestead, Agricultural and Property Forms

Applications are filed with Burleson CAD, not the Tax Assessor-Collector. Use a current form and identify the exact Cade Lake property ID and legal description.

Owner’s goal	Official form or route	Prepare before filing
Residence homestead	Form 50-114	Property ID, ownership information, occupancy date and required identification.
Disabled-veteran exemption	Form 50-135	VA or military documentation supporting the qualifying rating or status.
Open-space agricultural appraisal	Form 50-129	Acreage, land-use history, agricultural activity, operator and lease evidence.
Business personal-property rendition	Form 50-144	Inventory, machinery, equipment and taxable property owned or managed January 1.
Property-owner protest	Form 50-132	Property ID, protest grounds, requested correction and supporting evidence.
Electronic communication	Taxpayer Portal	Email access and information needed to connect the correct property account.
Change of mailing address	Burleson CAD address form	Owner identification, property ID, former mailing address and new address.

Can a vacant Cade Lake lot receive homestead?

A vacant lot normally does not qualify by itself merely because the owner plans to build later. Homestead qualification generally requires an ownership interest and use as the owner’s principal residence.

Can a small subdivision lot receive agricultural appraisal?

Rural location alone is not enough. Qualification depends on actual qualifying use, history, intensity and the Texas Property Tax Code.

Burleson CAD requires supporting identification for homestead applications. The district states that a driver’s-license copy or other information required by the Texas Property Tax Code must accompany the application.

Annual filing calendar

Important Cade Lake Property-Tax Dates

January 1 — appraisal date Ownership, property condition, use and taxable business property are generally evaluated as of January 1.

April 30 — common exemption and agricultural deadline The general filing deadline for many exemption and open-space applications is before May 1.

May 15 or 30 days after notice is mailed — usual protest deadline Most protests are due on the later of those dates. Follow the deadline printed on the official appraisal notice.

July 1 — attorney-fee stage The county states that a 15% attorney fee is added to qualifying delinquent accounts on July 1.

Appraisal-review workflow

How to Protest a Cade Lake Estates Appraisal

A protest should identify the exact account, appraisal year and reason the record or value is incorrect. Do not protest only because the final tax bill feels high.

Read the Notice of Appraised Value. Check the market value, appraised value, legal description, exemptions and exact protest deadline.

Open the current Cade Lake account. Verify section, block, lot, acreage, owner, property type and taxing entities.

Choose the correct protest ground. Common grounds include excessive value, unequal appraisal, ownership error, incorrect legal description, missing exemption or incorrect property data.

File Form 50-132 before the deadline. Submit the Property Owner’s Notice of Protest using a method accepted by Burleson CAD.

Save filing proof. Keep a stamped copy, portal confirmation, email record or mailing receipt.

Request the appraisal district’s evidence. Review comparable sales, land schedules, parcel data, maps and records supporting the value.

Organize evidence by issue. Separate value evidence from ownership, acreage, access, condition or exemption documentation.

State the exact requested result. Identify the value or record correction you believe the evidence supports.

Attend the informal review and ARB hearing. Preserve the formal protest until you understand and accept any proposed agreement.

Evidence that may help

Recent sales of genuinely comparable lots.
Comparable Cade Lake CAD records.
Recorded plat and deed information.
Survey or acreage evidence.
Photographs showing physical limitations.
Evidence of access or condition differences.

Weak evidence by itself

A tax-sale minimum bid.
The owner’s mortgage balance.
A parcel map used as a survey.
A sale from a different subdivision.
Personal financial hardship.

Title and recorded-document research

How to Verify Cade Lake Deeds, Plats and Liens

Burleson CAD warns that its website is not a legal document and that title research should be performed through the County Clerk. Buyers should treat the appraisal record as a starting point, not a title conclusion.

Open the Burleson County Clerk page. Use the official County Clerk website.

Search the current owner as both grantor and grantee. Include former names, trusts, estates and business entities.

Locate the deed referenced in the CAD record. Compare the instrument number, volume, page, recording date and legal description.

Find the applicable subdivision plat. Match the Cade Lake section, block and lot shown in the deed.

Review liens, releases and restrictions. A deed search alone may not reveal every issue affecting title or use.

Use qualified title and survey help before closing. Obtain current title research and a survey when the property, access or boundary is uncertain.

New owner is not listed	The recorded deed has not completed CAD processing.	Verify the deed with the County Clerk and give CAD the instrument reference.

10 practical answers

Cade Lake Estates Property Search FAQs

1. Is Cade Lake a county in Texas?

No. Cade Lake Estates is a subdivision in Burleson County, Texas. Property appraisals are handled by the Burleson County Appraisal District.

2. What is the official Cade Lake property-search website?

Use the Burleson CAD property search at esearch.burlesonappraisal.com. Do not use an unverified “Cade Lake CAD” domain.

3. How do I search for a Cade Lake Estates lot?

Open Advanced Search, use the Subdivision field, enter Cade Lake and select the matching subdivision. Narrow the results by owner, lot, street, property ID or geographic ID.

4. What should I do when a Cade Lake lot has no street number?

Search by subdivision, owner, property ID, geographic ID or legal description. Vacant subdivision lots often do not have a conventional numbered situs address.

5. Can several Cade Lake lots appear on one appraisal account?

Yes. A legal description may combine several lots, while other lots owned by the same person may have separate property IDs. Review every account and legal description.

6. Who collects property taxes for Cade Lake Estates?

The Burleson County Tax Assessor-Collector handles current and delinquent property-tax collections for participating taxing units. Burleson CAD determines appraisal values and exemptions.

7. What is the usual deadline to protest a Cade Lake appraisal?

The usual Texas deadline is May 15 or 30 days after the appraisal district mails the Notice of Appraised Value, whichever is later. Follow the exact deadline on the notice.

8. Can I claim homestead exemption on a vacant Cade Lake lot?

A vacant lot normally does not qualify merely because the owner plans to build later. Homestead generally requires an ownership interest and use as the owner’s principal residence.

9. Can the Burleson CAD map prove a Cade Lake property boundary?

No. The GIS map is an appraisal research tool and does not replace a recorded plat, deed, easement document or licensed boundary survey.

10. Where can I verify a Cade Lake deed or subdivision plat?

Use the Burleson County Clerk’s recorded-document records. Match the deed and plat with the section, block, lot and property ID shown by Burleson CAD.
