About EBS Business Tax Services

While we offer full-service tax preparation and business accounting, our property tax division specializes in assessment appeals and tax reduction strategies for commercial and residential properties throughout Southern California. Our unique advantage lies in our dual expertise – we understand both the tax implications of property ownership and the technical aspects of property valuation and assessment appeals. This comprehensive knowledge allows us to develop integrated tax strategies that optimize your overall tax burden, not just your property taxes.

How They Can Help

Our property tax services encompass the full spectrum of assessment dispute resolution and tax planning. We handle formal appeals before county assessment appeals boards, providing complete representation from case evaluation through final hearings. Our assessment review services include detailed property valuations using all three approaches to value: sales comparison, cost, and income methods. We specialize in commercial property appeals, including income-producing properties, owner-occupied businesses, and special-purpose facilities. For residential clients, we offer comprehensive market analyses and comparable sales studies. Additionally, we provide personal property assessments for business equipment, fixtures, and inventory. Our integrated approach means we also handle related tax matters including depreciation schedules, cost segregation studies, and 1031 exchanges that can complement your property tax reduction strategies.

What to Expect

We begin with a comprehensive property and tax analysis, reviewing both your property's assessment and its role in your overall tax strategy. Our team evaluates market data, property characteristics, and income potential to identify appeal opportunities. If we recommend an appeal, we prepare detailed evidence packages including professional valuations, market studies, and financial analyses. Throughout the process, we coordinate with your other tax planning needs, ensuring your property tax strategy aligns with your business and investment goals.

Service Area

We serve all of San Diego County with primary offices in San Diego. Our services extend throughout Southern California for commercial properties and complex residential appeals. We're licensed to practice before all county assessment appeals boards in California and maintain relationships with assessor's offices from Los Angeles to the Mexican border.
