How They Can Help

We offer comprehensive property tax assessment reviews that examine your property's valuation against comparable sales and market conditions. Our residential tax protest services include detailed property inspections, comparable property analysis, and formal hearing representation before the Bexar Appraisal Review Board. For commercial properties, we provide sophisticated valuation analysis using income, cost, and market approaches. We review lease data, operating expenses, and cap rates to build strong cases for assessment reductions. Our assessment appeal process includes preparing all necessary documentation, evidence gathering, and professional representation at hearings. We also offer ongoing monitoring services to catch assessment increases early and provide annual review consultations to keep your property taxes optimized year after year.

What to Expect

The process starts with a free property assessment review where we analyze your current valuation and recent sales data. If we identify potential savings, we'll provide a clear estimate of possible tax reduction and our service fees. Once you decide to proceed, we gather detailed property information, conduct market research, and prepare your formal protest documentation. We handle all communication with the appraisal district and represent you at hearings if necessary. Throughout the process, we keep you informed of progress and explain each step clearly so you understand what's happening with your case.

Service Area

We serve all of San Antonio and surrounding Bexar County communities, including areas like Stone Oak, Alamo Heights, Westside, Southtown, and the Medical Center. Our local knowledge of neighborhood market conditions and assessment patterns helps us build stronger cases for our clients across these diverse areas.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my property is over-assessed?
Compare your assessed value to recent sales of similar properties in your neighborhood. If yours is significantly higher without clear reasons, it may be over-assessed.
What's the deadline for filing a property tax protest in Texas?
Generally May 15th, but you have 30 days from when you receive a notice of increased value. Late filing is possible in some circumstances.
How much can I expect to save on my property taxes?
Savings vary widely based on your specific situation. Successful appeals typically result in 5-20% assessment reductions, translating to hundreds or thousands in annual tax savings.
Do I have to attend the hearing myself?
No, we can represent you at all hearings. Most clients prefer this since we understand the process and can present evidence more effectively.
What happens if we don't win the appeal?
You still pay our agreed-upon fee for the work performed. However, we carefully evaluate cases beforehand to pursue only those with reasonable chances of success.
Can I appeal my taxes every year?
Yes, you have the right to protest your assessment annually if you believe it's too high. However, repeated protests without new evidence may be less effective.
What evidence do you need from me?
Recent photos of your property, documentation of any damage or needed repairs, and any relevant information about market conditions or neighborhood changes.
How long does the appeal process take?
From filing to resolution typically takes 3-6 months, depending on hearing schedules and case complexity. We'll keep you updated throughout the process.
