Davies & Associates

Davies & Associates brings a multidisciplinary approach to property tax consulting, combining their expertise in real estate law with specialized tax reduction services. The firm has been serving New York property owners for over 20 years, building a reputation for thorough research and aggressive advocacy in assessment appeals. What sets them apart is their comprehensive understanding of both the legal and financial aspects of property ownership. Their team includes former assessors and real estate appraisers who provide insider knowledge of how properties are valued and assessed. This unique perspective helps them identify opportunities other consultants might overlook.

Davies & Associates provides end-to-end property tax reduction services including detailed property valuation analysis, formal appeal preparation and representation, and ongoing assessment monitoring. They handle both residential and commercial properties with equal expertise. For homeowners, they focus on market value appeals, exemption applications, and error corrections in assessment records. Their commercial services include income approach valuations, expense analysis, and negotiation with assessors for complex properties. The firm also provides tax certiorari proceedings when administrative appeals aren't sufficient. They offer consultation on property acquisition tax implications and help structure transactions to minimize future tax exposure. Additional services include property tax budgeting for commercial owners and multi-property portfolio reviews for investors with extensive holdings.

Initial consultations include a comprehensive review of your property records, recent assessments, and tax history. They'll analyze market data and identify potential grounds for appeal or tax reduction strategies. If they recommend proceeding, they'll provide a detailed timeline and explanation of the process. The firm handles all documentation, filing requirements, and communication with tax authorities. They prepare detailed valuation reports supported by market evidence and present cases directly to assessors or hearing officers. For court proceedings, their attorneys handle all litigation aspects while keeping clients informed throughout the process. Most cases are resolved through negotiation before reaching formal hearings.

Davies & Associates serves the greater New York metropolitan area including all five boroughs and surrounding counties. They have particular expertise in Brooklyn and Manhattan markets but regularly handle cases in Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island. The firm also serves Westchester, Nassau, and Suffolk counties. Their attorneys are admitted to practice in all New York State courts and maintain relationships with assessors throughout the region.
