Critical Corrections to the Existing Pecos County CAD Page

Existing Page Problem Current Official Information Why It Matters
Phone listed as 432-336-8616 Pecos CAD currently lists 432-336-7587. Owners need the correct office for value, exemption, agricultural and protest questions.
Address listed as 103 W. Callaghan Street Pecos CAD is at 201 S. Main, Fort Stockton. Its mailing address is P.O. Box 237. 103 W. Callaghan is the county courthouse location, not the appraisal-district office.
Hours shown as Monday–Friday, 8:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m. Monday–Thursday: 8:30 a.m.–5:00 p.m. Friday: 8:30 a.m.–4:00 p.m. Friday visitors relying on the old hours could arrive after closing.
Search routed to an outdated esearch subdomain The current property search is integrated directly into pecoscad.org. The current site provides property search, forms, map, PIN and protest tools together.
2026 value described as certified or final The official property detail page currently labels 2026 values preliminary and subject to change before certification. The displayed value may change through appraisal review, protest or certification.
Search described only by owner, address and account The current search also supports Geo ID, legal description, abstract, subdivision, lease name, lease number, protest status, agent and property type. Ranches, mineral interests and industrial accounts often cannot be found by street address.
No distinction among real, personal and mineral property The official search separates Real Estate, Personal Property and Mineral Property. One owner can have several unrelated accounts with different values and filing duties.
No online PIN workflow Pecos CAD provides account registration and a Request a PIN page for eligible online account functions. Owners should test account access before a filing deadline.
No mineral-appraisal routing Pecos CAD states that Thos. Y. Pickett & Company appraises mineral, utility and industrial accounts. Mineral and industrial evidence is different from residential or ranch-land evidence.
No deed-search date split Pecos QuickLink covers index books and selected land records from 1884–1983. County Government Records provides newer official public-record searching. Searching only one system can make an available deed or oil-and-gas record appear missing.
The existing page needed a full rebuild. Its contact information, office location, hours, search route and value language were incorrect or outdated, while important ranch, mineral, GIS, PIN and deed workflows were missing.

What to Try When the Search Returns No Result

Search Problem Better Method Why It Works
Full owner name fails Use only the last name or a distinctive business word. Initials, spouses and company suffixes may be stored differently.
Recent buyer is missing Search the seller or prior owner. Ownership updates can lag behind deed recording.
Ranch has no street address Use Geo ID, legal description, abstract, acreage or GIS. Rural records are often organized around surveys and sections.
Only one tract appears Repeat the owner search and compare every Property ID. One ranch operation may contain multiple accounts.
Mineral interest is missing Choose Mineral Property and search owner, lease name or lease number. Mineral ownership is separate from surface ownership.
Business equipment is missing Choose Personal Property and search the business or owner. Equipment may not appear under the building owner’s real-estate account.
Trust or estate is missing Try the trustee, decedent, estate, beneficiary and former owner. Different documents may use different ownership wording.
“I am trying to locate a Pecos County appraisal account. The owner or former owner is ______. The property is near ______. I believe it is a real estate / personal property / mineral account. My Property ID, lease or legal-description clue is ______.”
Still cannot find the account? Call Pecos CAD at 432-336-7587 or email scalderon@pecoscad.org.

How to Read a Pecos CAD Property Record

Record Field Meaning Practical Check
Parcel or Property ID Primary appraisal-account identifier. Use it on calls, forms, evidence and tax searches.
Owner ID Identifier connected to the owner record. One owner may have several Property IDs.
Geographic ID Map-oriented parcel identifier. Useful when a ranch has no usable street address.
Legal Description Appraisal summary of survey, section, abstract, subdivision or tract data. Compare it with the deed before legal use.
Category Code Appraisal classification such as rural non-agricultural land. Confirm the classification matches the actual use.
Total Acres Acreage carried in the appraisal record. Verify with a deed or survey; CAD acreage is not a boundary survey.
Market Value District opinion of January 1 market value. The portal currently labels 2026 values preliminary.
Ag/Timber Value Special productivity value for qualifying land. Confirm both market and productivity values are displayed correctly.
Homestead Cap Loss Value excluded by a qualifying homestead appraisal limitation. A zero amount may be correct for a new owner or non-homestead account.
Circuit Breaker Loss Value excluded by the temporary non-homestead limitation when eligible. Not every real-property account qualifies.
Taxing Jurisdictions County, city, school, groundwater, hospital or college entities attached to the account. Taxable value may differ by entity.
Deed History Selected ownership references carried by the appraisal district. Verify the complete instrument through County Clerk records.
Official database warning: Pecos 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 Pecos CAD Interactive Map

1
Search the appraisal account first.

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

2
Open the official Interactive Map page.

Allow extra loading time on a phone or slower rural connection.

3
Locate the general tract area.

Use highways, county roads, sections and adjoining parcels for orientation.

4
Compare neighboring Property IDs.

This helps identify family acreage, divided ranches and accounts without situs addresses.

5
Save a dated map image.

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

The map can help with
  • General parcel location
  • Ranch and section orientation
  • Adjoining appraisal accounts
  • Road and tract context
  • Land without a postal address
The map cannot prove
  • Exact legal boundaries
  • Legal road access
  • Clear title
  • Mineral ownership
  • Survey-quality acreage

Preliminary 2026 Market, Appraised and Taxable Values

Preliminary Market Value → Appraisal Limitation or Agricultural Value → Exemptions → Taxable Value
Preliminary market value The current property record states that 2026 values may 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% limitation.
Agricultural productivity value Qualifying land is valued according to agricultural productivity instead of ordinary market value.
Taxable value Exemptions and limitations can produce different taxable values for each taxing jurisdiction.
Tax estimate link Use the TNT link on the property record for current estimated-tax and proposed-rate information.
Do not multiply a preliminary 2026 value by a 2025 rate and treat the result as a final bill. Final values, exemptions and adopted 2026 rates may change.

Pecos County Residence Homestead Exemption

Current 2026 school-tax relief: The general school-district residence-homestead exemption is $140,000. Qualifying age-65 or disabled homeowners receive an additional $60,000 school exemption.
General homestead Available for a qualifying owner’s principal residence.
Age 65 or disabled May provide an additional exemption, school-tax ceiling and installment-payment options.
Disabled veteran Partial or total relief may apply based on the qualifying statutory category.
1
Open Pecos CAD’s official Forms page.

Use the current Homestead Exemption Form and instructions.

2
Confirm ownership and principal residence.

Use the date the property became your qualifying residence homestead.

3
Prepare identification.

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

4
Submit to the correct mailing address.

Pecos County Appraisal District, P.O. Box 237, Fort Stockton, TX 79735.

5
Confirm approval on the property record.

Submitting an application does not prove it has been approved.

Missed April 30? Certain qualifying residence-homestead applications may be filed within a statutory late-filing period. Contact Pecos CAD promptly.
Official exemption action: Open Pecos CAD Forms and review current Texas exemptions.

Agricultural Appraisal and Wildlife Management

Pecos County’s agricultural requirements are location-specific. The district states that qualifying acreage and animal numbers can vary with soil, forage, property location, animal type and agricultural activity.
Open-space agricultural use Land must meet qualifying use history, principal-use and local-intensity requirements.
Animal-unit standards Pecos CAD publishes a county-specific animal-units chart instead of using one number for every ranch.
Wildlife management Land generally must already qualify for agricultural valuation and require a timely application plus a wildlife-management plan.

Evidence to Keep by Property ID

  • Grazing or agricultural leases
  • Livestock purchase and sale records
  • Feed, veterinary and fencing receipts
  • Water-well and livestock-water records
  • Dated photographs
  • Ranch maps identifying each tract
  • Stocking or production history
  • Wildlife-management plan and reports
  • Drought or unusual-condition evidence
  • Prior qualification documents
1
Identify every account in the operation.

Do not assume one application automatically covers every ranch tract.

2
Review the local animal-units guidance.

Match the acreage, forage and activity to the correct local standard.

3
File during the normal January 1–April 30 period.

Ask immediately about late-filing rules if the normal date has passed.

4
Keep evidence after approval.

The district may review whether qualifying agricultural or wildlife use continues.

Late approved application: A late agricultural or open-space application may include a 10% penalty based on the tax savings.
West Texas ranch tip Explain drought-related stocking changes with dated evidence. Reduced animal numbers without records can look like abandoned agricultural use.

Pecos County Mineral, Utility and Industrial Accounts

Specialized appraisal: Pecos CAD states that Thos. Y. Pickett & Company appraises mineral, utility and industrial accounts. Real estate and ordinary personal property are appraised locally.
1
Select Mineral Property.

A real-estate search can hide an oil-and-gas interest.

2
Search the owner and prior owner.

Try trusts, estates, royalty entities and business names.

3
Use lease name or lease number.

These fields may locate accounts without a normal property address.

4
Open every related mineral account.

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

5
Compare with royalty and title documents.

Review division orders, royalty statements, mineral deeds, leases and assignments.

Mineral-title warning: An appraisal account is not a mineral-title opinion. County Clerk records, probate documents and professional title research may be required.
“I am calling about mineral Property ID ______. The owner is ______ and the lease name or number is ______. I need help confirming the account, ownership address, appraisal contact or value evidence.”

Business Personal Property Rendition

2026 regular deadline: Most business-personal-property renditions were due April 15. A timely written request generally extended the deadline to May 15.
Common rendered property Inventory, furniture, fixtures, machinery, equipment, computers and other income-producing tangible property.
2026 small-account exemption Qualifying income-producing personal property with total taxable value of $125,000 or less in a taxing unit may be exempt.
Late-filing risk A required rendition filed late can create a penalty based on the taxes imposed on the property.
1
Confirm the Personal Property account.

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

2
Prepare a January 1 asset list.

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

3
Include acquisition year and original cost where requested.

Keep invoices and schedules supporting age, condition and obsolescence.

4
Save the filed rendition and proof of delivery.

Keep the submitted form with the supporting asset schedule.

How to Prepare a Pecos County Appraisal Protest

Use the deadline printed on your Notice of Appraised Value. The usual deadline is May 15 or 30 days after the notice was mailed, whichever is later. By July 19, 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 printed deadline.

2
Identify every genuine protest reason.

Examples include excessive value, unequal appraisal, incorrect characteristics, missing exemption or denied agricultural valuation.

3
Request an online account PIN early.

Create an account and test access before relying on online protest filing.

4
File the protest before the applicable deadline.

Use the online protest system or submit a written Notice of Protest.

5
Request the district’s evidence.

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

6
Build property-specific evidence.

Use condition photos, repair estimates, adjusted comparables, ranch limitations, production records or mineral evidence.

7
State the requested correction clearly.

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

8
Continue to the ARB if unresolved.

Organize exhibits in presentation order and read the written ARB order immediately.

Property Type Useful Evidence Weak Evidence
House Condition photos, repair bids, size corrections and adjusted comparable properties. Mortgage balance or tax increase alone.
Ranch land Access, water, forage, topography, fencing, utilities, shape and comparable-land adjustments. Comparing highway frontage with an inaccessible interior tract.
Mineral account Production, decline, prices, expenses, lease data, decimal interest and ownership documents. Surface-property evidence unrelated to the mineral interest.
Business property Asset list, cost, age, condition, depreciation and obsolescence support. An unsupported lump-sum estimate.
ARB presentation tip Lead with the error, requested value and strongest exhibit. Do not make the panel search through an unorganized evidence packet.

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. The request generally must be made before the ARB approves the appraisal records.
Failure to receive notice A required appraisal or ARB notice was not received. Special filing and tax-payment rules apply.
Late homestead application The owner qualified but missed the ordinary application date. File within the applicable statutory period.
Late agricultural application The land qualified but the regular application was late. Approval may include a 10% penalty based on tax savings.
Appraisal-roll correction A qualifying statutory error or sufficiently large over-appraisal exists. An ordinary disagreement about value is not automatically a clerical error.
Act immediately after discovering a missed deadline. Ask Pecos CAD which specific remedy may apply. Do not assume a late ordinary protest form automatically creates a hearing.

How to Search and Pay Pecos County Property Taxes

Consolidated collection: The Pecos County Tax Office collects for Pecos County, Fort Stockton, Fort Stockton ISD, Iraan-Sheffield ISD, Buena Vista ISD, Midland College, Middle Pecos Groundwater, Iraan General Hospital District and Pecos County Memorial Hospital District.
1
Copy the Property ID and owner name.

Confirm whether the account is real estate, personal property or mineral property.

2
Open the official Pecos County Tax Office website.

The tax search is separate from the appraisal-district search.

3
Review every open tax year.

Paying a current balance does not automatically clear an older delinquency.

4
Confirm the taxing jurisdictions.

Compare the tax account with the entities shown on the CAD property record.

5
Review the amount and payment status before submitting.

If the online option is unavailable or unclear, call the Tax Office rather than submitting repeatedly.

6
Save the confirmation and verify posting.

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

How to Search Pecos County Deeds, Liens and Oil-and-Gas Records

1
Collect the CAD clues.

Save the current owner, prior owner, Property ID, legal description and deed-history references.

2
Choose the records system by date.

Use Pecos QuickLink for index books and selected records from 1884–1983. Use County Government Records for newer searches.

3
Search grantor and grantee names separately.

Try individuals, spouses, trusts, estates, companies, operators and former owners.

4
Select the correct record type.

Look for deeds, deeds of trust, releases, liens, easements, leases, assignments, royalty deeds and plats.

5
Match the legal description.

A matching name does not prove the record concerns the same tract or mineral interest.

6
Follow referenced instruments.

A deed or lease may refer to an earlier reservation, easement, assignment or release.

7
Purchase the correct image or certified copy.

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

1884–1983 records QuickLink includes deed, deed-of-trust, lease, oil-and-gas and plat index material. Open Pecos QuickLink
1983–present public records The County Clerk links County Government Records for registered document searching. Open County Government Records
Pecos County Clerk: Liz Chapman, 200 S. Nelson St., Suite 3, Fort Stockton, TX 79735. Phone 432-336-7555.
The County Clerk does not perform or guarantee general title searches. Use a title company, landman or attorney when ownership, lien or mineral-title certainty is required.
Oil-and-gas record tip Search the lease, assignment and royalty-deed chains—not only the latest surface deed. Mineral interests can be transferred independently of the land.
