How They Can Help

Our comprehensive property tax services include residential and commercial assessment appeals, where we challenge inflated property valuations through detailed market comparisons and professional appraisals. We handle homestead exemption applications and reviews to ensure you're receiving all available tax benefits. For commercial properties, we provide specialized analysis of income approaches, cost approaches, and market data to build compelling cases for reduced assessments. We also offer pre-assessment consulting to help property owners understand their rights and prepare for upcoming tax cycles. Our valuation dispute services include working with certified appraisers and presenting evidence to local property appraisers' offices. Additionally, we assist with special assessments, exemption eligibility reviews, and ongoing monitoring of your property's assessed value to catch potential overpayments early.

What to Expect

Your journey begins with a free consultation where we review your property tax notices and assess your appeal prospects. We'll gather property details, recent sales data, and any relevant documentation about your property's condition or market factors. Once engaged, we conduct thorough research including comparable property analysis, market studies, and physical inspections when necessary. We prepare and file all required paperwork with the appropriate authorities and represent you at hearings. Throughout the process, you'll receive regular updates on case progress and strategy adjustments.

Service Area

We serve all of Miami-Dade County with a focus on Coral Gables, Miami, Pinecrest, and South Miami. Our familiarity with local property markets and assessment practices gives us distinct advantages when building cases for tax reductions. We handle properties throughout the greater Miami metropolitan area, from luxury waterfront homes to commercial developments in downtown Miami.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much can I save on my property taxes?
Savings vary by property, but our successful appeals average 15-25% reductions. Some cases achieve much higher savings depending on assessment errors and market conditions.
What if my appeal is unsuccessful?
You typically owe nothing on contingency cases if we don't achieve savings. We provide honest assessments upfront about your chances of success.
How long does the appeal process take?
Most residential appeals resolve within 3-6 months, while commercial cases may take 6-12 months due to complexity.
Can I appeal multiple years of assessments?
Florida generally allows appeals only for the current tax year. However, successful appeals often influence future assessments positively.
Do I need to attend hearings personally?
We represent you at all hearings and proceedings. Your attendance is rarely required, though it can sometimes be helpful.
What documents do I need for an appeal?
We'll need your property tax notices, recent appraisals, and any documentation about property condition or market factors affecting value.
Are there deadlines for filing appeals?
Yes, but Florida offers multiple filing opportunities throughout the year. We'll identify the best timeline for your specific situation.
Will appealing my taxes trigger an audit?
Property tax appeals are separate from income tax matters and don't increase audit risk. It's your legal right to challenge assessments.
