The Brief
- A Dallas woman is suing the Dallas Central Appraisal District (DCAD) for the second year in a row over her property tax bill.
- Her home was purchased through a Habitat for Humanity affordable housing program with a deed restriction limiting its sale value to $160,000.
- She and her attorney argue that her property taxes should be capped at this same value, but DCAD has appraised the home at a much higher amount.
