Bishop Arts Property Tax Protest

About Bishop Arts

Bishop Arts sits at the heart of north Oak Cliff, surrounded by walkable restaurants, boutiques, and a wave of new infill construction. The neighborhood has seen some of the fastest year-over-year appreciation in Dallas, which often means DCAD assessments lag — or overshoot — actual comparable sales by significant margins.

If your home is an older bungalow with original systems, or you're on a block that hasn't been redeveloped at the same pace as surrounding streets, you may be paying tax on a higher-than-fair assessment.

The May 15 deadline

Texas law gives Bishop Arts homeowners until May 15 (or 30 days after the notice date, whichever is later) to file a protest with DCAD. After that window generally closes, this year's number stands. Verify your specific deadline at dallascad.org or on your DCAD appraisal notice.

How it works

1. Enter your Bishop Arts address — we pull your DCAD assessment. 2. We compare it to recent sales of similar nearby Bishop Arts homes. 3. You get a free reminder before the May 15 deadline so you can file your protest in time.
