Also, the county appraiser's job is to estimate the actual market value of property for tax purposes. They often use square footage as one factor to assess the value. But, I don't think there is any law that constrains the appraiser on how they determine the market value.
If you add square footage they can reappraise your house to market value negating your homestead exemption of no more than 3% per year.
