Two Offices Handle Your Property Taxes in Lee County

At 898 E. Richmond St. in Giddings, two doors down the same hallway run the whole property tax process, but they do completely different jobs. Suite 100 is the Lee Central Appraisal District (Lee CAD), and every year they decide what your house, your land, or your shop is worth. That number is the seed your whole tax bill grows from. If you think your home is appraised too high, or you want to file for a homestead exemption, this is the door you knock on.

Suite 103, just down the hall, is the Tax Assessor-Collector. They take the value Lee CAD hands them, print the bills, and take your money. A late check or a question about what you owe goes to them, not to the appraisers next door, and the two offices don't trade those jobs back and forth. People mix them up all the time and end up arguing the wrong point at the wrong counter. Easy rule: anything about the worth of your property is Suite 100; anything about the bill itself is Suite 103.
