How They Can Help
The firm offers comprehensive property tax appeal services for both residential and commercial properties throughout Harris County. Their residential services include homestead exemption applications, assessment reviews for single-family homes, condos, and townhomes, plus appeals for agricultural and timber exemptions. They handle all paperwork and represent clients at informal and formal hearings. For commercial clients, they provide detailed market analysis, income approach valuations, and cost approach assessments for office buildings, retail centers, industrial facilities, and multi-family properties. Their team reviews assessment methodologies, identifies valuation errors, and prepares compelling evidence packages. They also offer ongoing monitoring services to track assessment changes year-over-year and proactively identify appeal opportunities before deadlines pass.
What to Expect
The process begins with a free property assessment review where they analyze your current valuation against market data and recent sales. If they identify potential savings, they'll explain the appeal timeline and gather necessary documentation including property records, recent appraisals, and comparable sales data. Once you approve the engagement, they prepare and file all required protest forms before the May 15th deadline. They handle informal hearings with the appraisal review board, presenting evidence and negotiating settlements. If needed, they'll proceed to formal hearings or district court appeals. Throughout the process, you'll receive regular updates on case progress and hearing outcomes.
