How They Can Help

We provide full-service property tax consulting for both residential and commercial properties throughout New Mexico. Our residential services include homestead exemption applications, assessment appeals, and tax planning for property transfers. We help homeowners understand their rights and ensure they're receiving all available exemptions and deductions. For commercial clients, we offer sophisticated valuation analysis, income property assessments, and multi-property portfolio reviews. Our team handles complex issues like partial exemptions for mixed-use properties, business personal property appeals, and tax planning for property acquisitions. We also provide expert witness services for litigation involving property valuations. Our comprehensive approach includes ongoing monitoring of assessment changes and proactive planning to prevent overassessment before it occurs.

What to Expect

Our process begins with a comprehensive property tax audit where we review your current assessments, exemptions, and payment history. We analyze market data, comparable properties, and assessment methodologies to identify potential savings opportunities. During this initial phase, we provide a detailed report outlining our findings and recommendations. If we identify savings potential, we develop a customized strategy for your situation. This might include filing appeals, applying for exemptions, or restructuring property ownership for tax efficiency. We handle all communications with tax authorities and keep you informed of progress throughout the process. Our goal is to achieve maximum savings while building long-term tax strategies.

Service Area

We serve clients throughout New Mexico, with primary offices in Albuquerque. Our service area includes Bernalillo, Santa Fe, Sandoval, Valencia, and Torrance Counties. We also handle select commercial properties statewide for established clients with multi-location operations. Our central Albuquerque location provides easy access for metro area clients, while our statewide practice allows us to serve major commercial property owners regardless of location.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between a property tax appeal and tax planning?
Appeals challenge current incorrect assessments, while tax planning involves structuring your property ownership and transactions to minimize future tax liability. Both are important for comprehensive tax management.
Do you work with property owners outside of Albuquerque?
Yes, we serve clients throughout New Mexico, though our primary focus is the Albuquerque metro area. We handle commercial properties statewide for established clients.
How do you determine if my property is overassessed?
We analyze recent sales of comparable properties, review assessment methodologies, and examine market conditions. Our certified appraisers provide independent valuations when needed.
What happens if my appeal is denied?
We can pursue further appeals to higher levels including district court if the case merits it. We'll discuss all available options and help you decide the best course of action.
Can you help with business personal property taxes?
Yes, we handle business personal property assessments including equipment, inventory, and fixtures. These often involve complex valuation issues we're well-equipped to address.
How often do assessments change in New Mexico?
Most counties reassess properties every few years, though some changes occur annually. Market conditions and property improvements can also trigger assessment changes between formal reassessment cycles.
What documentation do you need to evaluate my case?
We need current tax assessments, recent tax bills, property deeds, and any relevant property information. We can help you gather additional documentation as needed.
Is there a minimum property value you'll work with?
We work with properties of all values, though our fee structure may vary. Contact us to discuss your specific situation and determine the most cost-effective approach.
