They've successfully challenged thousands of property assessments, often securing significant reductions for clients.

The firm handles comprehensive property tax appeals from initial assessment reviews through formal hearings before local appeal boards. They conduct thorough property valuations using comparable sales data, cost approaches, and income analysis for commercial properties. Services include filing appeals with county assessment offices, preparing detailed valuation reports, and representing clients at appeal hearings. For commercial properties, they analyze income streams, operating expenses, and market conditions to demonstrate appropriate valuations. Residential services focus on comparable sales analysis and identifying assessment errors or outdated information.

They work with certified appraisers when needed and can coordinate with property management companies for commercial clients. Additional services include tax exemption applications for qualifying properties and advice on property improvements that might affect future assessments.

The process starts with a free consultation where they review your property assessment and recent sales data to determine if an appeal is worthwhile. If they proceed, they'll conduct a detailed property analysis, gathering comparable sales, reviewing assessment records, and identifying any errors or outdated information. Next, they prepare and file the formal appeal with the appropriate county office within required deadlines. They handle all paperwork and communications with assessors. If needed, they'll represent you at appeal hearings, presenting evidence and arguing your case. Throughout the process, they keep you informed of progress and explain potential outcomes. Most cases resolve within 3-6 months, depending on the county's schedule and case complexity.
