About Boyd Elite Tax

Services
How They Can Help
Boyd Elite Tax offers property tax review and appeal assistance alongside their core accounting and bookkeeping services. For property owners, that means they can assess whether your current assessed value is defensible, prepare the documentation needed for a formal protest, and walk you through the Board of Equalization process. For rental property owners, they handle the intersection of income tax and property tax, including making sure your property tax payments are accurately recorded in your books, that you're claiming the right deductions, and that your assessed value is reasonable given your actual rental income. Over-assessed rental properties hurt twice: once on the tax bill and once on your paper financials. Small business owners benefit from their bookkeeping integration. If your business owns or leases commercial real estate, Boyd Elite Tax can review the assessment as part of your annual financial review rather than treating it as a separate engagement. They also handle individual tax preparation, IRS correspondence, and general tax planning for clients whose needs aren't purely property-focused. That breadth means clients don't need to maintain separate relationships with a CPA, a bookkeeper, and a property tax consultant.
What to Expect
Boyd Elite Tax typically starts with a financial review consultation. They want to understand your full tax picture before focusing on any single piece, including property taxes. If you come in with a property assessment that feels off, they'll look at your recent purchase price, any appraisals you have, and comparable sales in your neighborhood or commercial corridor. If there's a case for appeal, they'll prepare the protest documentation and help you file before Jefferson County's deadline. Their accounting background means they're comfortable building the financial narrative that supports a valuation argument, particularly for income-producing properties where an income approach analysis is relevant. For business clients, they often catch property tax issues during routine bookkeeping reviews rather than waiting for the client to flag it. That proactive approach saves clients from missing appeal windows. After a successful appeal, they update your financial records to reflect the corrected value and adjusted tax liability going forward.
Service Area
Boyd Elite Tax serves clients throughout the Birmingham metro area, including Jefferson, Shelby, and St. Clair Counties. They work with clients in Birmingham proper as well as suburbs including Pelham, Alabaster, Trussville, and Center Point. Remote services are available for bookkeeping and tax preparation clients who don't need in-person meetings, and they can handle assessment appeal paperwork for Alabama properties regardless of where the owner is located.
