Property-tax intelligence you can cite.
Parcelytics turns certified government records into investment-grade analysis — verified appraisal data, 35 years of tax-rate history, and parcel-level benchmarks, every figure traceable to its source.
Why Parcelytics
Conceived from firsthand experience on the investment and lending side of commercial real estate. Evaluating a property's tax position meant navigating a different county website, assessor's office, and tax authority for every deal, with no consolidated source to verify against. Conversations with colleagues across the industry confirmed this wasn't an isolated inefficiency. Rather than pulling from third-party data brokers, Parcelytics connects directly to each county's own property tax and appraisal records — with a direct link back to the original source for anyone who wants to verify it independently. That means slower, more deliberate growth, but it also means every number on this platform can be traced to its official source. We're expanding coverage county by county, starting with Travis County and verifying each new market before it goes live.
The tax side of underwriting, end to end.

Honesty, made premium.
Every figure carries a confidence label. We never blend a guess with a real number — and when data is missing, we say so.
What “Not available” means, and why it happens.
Every figure on Parcelytics comes from a specific government source, tagged with its own confidence level (see the standard above). Some gaps come from the source data itself, not from anything on our end — here's the most common one.
Why is a parcel's tax bill “Not available from the county”?
Travis County's own current-year billing extract doesn't include a row for every parcel in TCAD's appraisal roll. Some property types — personal property accounts, mobile homes, and a smaller number of ordinary single-family homes — don't appear in the county's public billing file the way most residential accounts do. This is a gap in Travis County's own published data, confirmed directly against the source file; it isn't something Parcelytics failed to load.
Where a parcel's actual bill isn't available, we don't leave the figure blank or show a stale placeholder. When we have enough certified data to produce a reasonable estimate — this year's taxable value × last known entity tax rates — we show it clearly marked Estimated and prefixed with “~”, an approximation, not a confirmed billed amount. Where we can't even estimate, we say so rather than guess.
We're continuing to investigate the scope of this gap with Travis County directly. If you're a homeowner whose actual bill differs from an estimate shown here, your county tax statement is always the authoritative figure.
