How They Can Help

Our core services center on comprehensive property tax appeal preparation and representation. We begin with detailed property evaluations, market analysis, and assessment review to identify grounds for appeal. For residential clients, we handle appeals for single-family homes, condominiums, townhomes, and investment properties throughout Pittsburgh and surrounding areas. Commercial services include complex valuations for retail properties, office buildings, industrial facilities, and mixed-use developments. We utilize all three approaches to value - comparable sales, income capitalization, and replacement cost - depending on property type and market conditions. Additional services include assessment monitoring to catch increases early, clerical error corrections, and consultation on property tax implications of improvements or renovations. We also provide expert witness services for legal proceedings involving property valuations and assessment disputes.

What to Expect

Your property tax reduction process starts with our rapid assessment review, typically completed within 48 hours of receiving your property information. We analyze your current assessment against recent comparable sales and identify all factors supporting a lower valuation, including property defects, market conditions, and assessment errors. Once we confirm appeal viability, we immediately begin preparing your case documentation and file all required paperwork within statutory deadlines. We handle all interactions with county assessors and represent you at hearings when necessary. Our streamlined approach focuses on presenting the strongest possible case quickly and efficiently. Most clients see results within 3-6 months, with reduced tax bills taking effect the following year. We provide regular updates and explain each step so you understand exactly what's happening with your appeal.

Service Area

We serve all of Allegheny County including Pittsburgh, Mount Lebanon, Upper St. Clair, Peters Township, Bethel Park, and surrounding communities. Our practice extends throughout the North Hills, South Hills, and eastern suburbs where we have extensive market data and assessment experience. We also handle select cases in adjacent counties when we have specific expertise or established relationships with local assessment offices that benefit our clients.
