How They Can Help

We offer comprehensive property tax consulting services designed to maximize your savings. Our residential tax protest services help homeowners challenge unfair assessments through detailed market analysis and comparable sales research. For commercial clients, we provide sophisticated valuation analysis using income, cost, and sales comparison approaches. Our assessment review process includes thorough property inspections, market data compilation, and preparation of formal appeals documentation. We handle all aspects of the appeals process, from initial filing to hearing representation. Additional services include tax exemption applications for qualifying properties, consultation on assessment timing strategies, and ongoing monitoring of your property's assessed value to identify future appeal opportunities.

What to Expect

Your journey starts with a free consultation where we review your assessment and property details. We'll analyze recent sales data and identify potential grounds for appeal within 48 hours. If we find merit in your case, we'll conduct a detailed property evaluation and compile supporting documentation. We handle all paperwork and filing deadlines, keeping you informed throughout the process. Most appeals are resolved through administrative review, though we'll represent you at hearings when necessary. The entire process typically takes 3-6 months depending on your jurisdiction's schedule.

Service Area

We serve all of Baltimore County, Baltimore City, and surrounding counties including Anne Arundel, Howard, and Harford. Our Dundalk office provides convenient access for eastern Baltimore County residents. We're licensed to practice before all Maryland assessment boards and have established relationships with local assessors that help streamline the appeals process.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you determine if my property is over-assessed?
We analyze recent sales of comparable properties, review assessment records for errors, and examine your property's characteristics. This typically reveals whether your assessment is fair or inflated.
What's the deadline for filing a property tax appeal?
In Maryland, you typically have 30-60 days from receiving your assessment notice to file an appeal. Deadlines vary by county, so it's important to act quickly.
Will appealing my taxes trigger a higher assessment?
No, Maryland law prohibits assessors from raising your assessment solely because you filed an appeal. Your assessment can only be increased based on new evidence of higher value.
How much can I expect to save on my property taxes?
Savings vary widely based on your property's over-assessment level. Typical reductions range from 10-30% of assessed value, though some cases achieve larger savings.
Do I need to be present for appeal hearings?
While helpful, your presence isn't required. We can represent you at all hearings and handle the entire process on your behalf.
Can I appeal if I just bought my property?
Yes, purchase price can be strong evidence in your appeal, especially if you bought recently and the assessed value exceeds your purchase price significantly.
What happens if we lose the appeal?
If we're unsuccessful, you owe nothing under our contingency arrangement. You can also appeal to the Maryland Tax Court if you disagree with the board's decision.
How long do tax reductions last?
Successful appeals typically reduce your taxes until the next reassessment cycle. However, assessment practices may change, so monitoring future assessments is important.
