How They Can Help

Property tax appeal services include residential assessment challenges, commercial property valuation disputes, and multi-property portfolio reviews. They handle the entire appeal process from initial assessment review through formal hearings before the Board of Property Tax Appeals. Their commercial services cover office buildings, retail spaces, industrial properties, and investment real estate. Additional services include tax exemption applications for qualifying properties, senior citizen property tax deferral assistance, and ongoing assessment monitoring. They also provide valuation analysis reports that compare your property's assessed value to similar properties in your area. For commercial clients, they offer comprehensive portfolio management to ensure consistent tax reduction strategies across multiple properties.

What to Expect

The process starts with a free property assessment review where they analyze your current tax bill and compare it to similar properties. If they find potential savings, they'll explain the appeal timeline and success probability. Once you agree to proceed, they gather property documentation, research comparable sales, and prepare your appeal package. They handle all paperwork submissions and represent you at hearings if needed. Throughout the process, they keep you informed of progress and timeline updates. Most residential appeals take 3-6 months to complete.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my property is overassessed?
Compare your assessed value to recent sales of similar properties in your neighborhood. If your assessment is 10-15% higher than comparable sales, you may have grounds for an appeal.
What's the deadline for filing a property tax appeal in Oregon?
Appeals must be filed by December 31st of the tax year you're appealing. Missing this deadline means waiting until the next assessment cycle.
How much can I expect to save on a successful appeal?
Most successful appeals result in 10-25% tax reductions. Savings depend on how overassessed your property was and the strength of comparable evidence.
Do I need to attend the appeal hearing?
Not necessarily. They can represent you at hearings, though some clients prefer to attend for their own knowledge and peace of mind.
What happens if the appeal is unsuccessful?
You won't owe any fees under their contingency structure. You can appeal again in future years if circumstances change or new evidence becomes available.
How long do appeal decisions take?
Most appeals are decided within 3-6 months of filing. Complex commercial cases may take longer depending on the evidence and hearing schedules.
Can I appeal multiple years of assessments?
Generally, you can only appeal the current tax year. However, if you discover systematic errors, there may be options for correcting multiple years.
What documentation do I need to provide?
They'll need your property tax statements, any recent appraisals, and information about property condition or market factors that might affect value. They'll guide you through gathering necessary documents.
