Overview of El Paso County’s 2024 Property Tax Revaluation by the El Paso Central Appraisal District

The residential property values in El Paso County are experiencing significant increases, which exceed the growth rates documented in the El Paso metropolitan area. Despite the fact that residential real estate has generated substantial profits, the industry has experienced a range of conditions, with some regions experiencing growth and others experiencing declines. A considerable proportion of homeowners claim a decline in the open market price of their residential properties in recent times, a circumstance that can be attributed in part to the interest rate increase from 1.71% in January 2022 to 4.05% in January 2024. Consistent revenue patterns and ongoing increases in casualty insurance and other operational expenses also have an effect on this position.
