How They Can Help

Our comprehensive property tax services cover every aspect of assessment challenges and tax reduction. We start with detailed property valuations using market data analysis, comparable sales research, and income approach calculations for commercial properties. Our assessment review process examines your property's classification, exemptions, and valuation methods for potential errors or overassessments. We file formal protests with county assessors and represent clients at appeal hearings before local boards of equalization. For complex commercial cases, we pursue appeals to district courts when necessary. Our tax reduction consulting includes ongoing monitoring of your assessments and proactive strategies to maintain fair valuations. We also provide valuation analysis for purchase decisions and refinancing purposes, helping clients understand true property values versus assessed values.

What to Expect

Your property tax appeal begins with a free consultation where we review your current assessment and tax history. We'll analyze recent sales data and inspect your property to identify potential grounds for appeal. If we find merit in your case, we prepare and file the necessary paperwork with your county assessor within required deadlines. Our team handles all communication with assessment officials and represents you at hearings. We present compelling evidence including comparable sales, income analysis, and expert testimony when needed. Throughout the process, we keep you informed of progress and negotiate the best possible outcome. Most appeals resolve within 60-90 days, though complex cases may take longer.

Service Area

We serve property owners throughout the greater Omaha metropolitan area, including Douglas, Sarpy, and Washington counties. Our office is centrally located in downtown Omaha, with easy access for clients across eastern Nebraska. We also handle select cases in Lancaster County and other Nebraska jurisdictions for existing clients with multiple properties.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my property is overassessed?
Compare your assessed value to recent sales of similar properties in your area. If your assessment is significantly higher than market evidence suggests, you may have grounds for appeal.
What's the deadline for filing a property tax appeal?
In Nebraska, you typically have 30 days from receiving your assessment notice to file an appeal. Missing this deadline means waiting until next year.
How much can you typically reduce my property taxes?
Successful appeals average 10-25% reduction in assessed value. The actual savings depend on your property's specific circumstances and the strength of evidence available.
Do I have to attend the appeal hearing?
No, we represent you at all hearings and handle all communication with assessors. You're welcome to attend, but it's not required.
What evidence helps win property tax appeals?
Recent comparable sales, property condition issues, income analysis for commercial properties, and errors in property details. Professional appraisals can also be valuable.
Can appealing my taxes cause them to increase?
In Nebraska, appeals can only result in reductions or no change. Your taxes cannot be increased as a result of filing an appeal.
How long do property tax appeal results last?
Appeal results establish your property's assessed value for that year. However, assessors can increase values in future years based on market conditions.
What if I disagree with the appeal board's decision?
You can appeal to district court within 30 days of the board's decision. We handle court appeals for cases with strong merit and significant tax savings potential.
