How They Can Help

The firm provides comprehensive property tax reduction services including residential and commercial property appeals, assessment review and analysis, and valuation disputes. They handle everything from single-family homes to large commercial complexes, retail centers, and industrial properties. Their process begins with detailed property analysis comparing your assessment to similar properties and recent sales data. They prepare and file all necessary paperwork, represent clients at hearings, and negotiate directly with county assessors when possible. Additional services include tax exemption applications for qualified properties, agricultural classification reviews, and ongoing monitoring of annual assessments to catch increases early. The team also provides consultation on property improvements and timing to minimize tax impact.

What to Expect

The process starts with a free consultation where they review your property tax notice and recent assessment history. If they identify potential savings, they'll conduct a comprehensive market analysis comparing your property to similar sales and assessments in your area. Once you decide to proceed, they handle all paperwork and filing deadlines. You'll receive regular updates throughout the appeal process. Most cases resolve through negotiation with the county assessor, but they're prepared to represent you at formal hearings if needed. The entire process typically takes 3-6 months from initial filing to resolution.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much can I expect to save on my property taxes?
Savings vary widely based on property type and assessment accuracy. Residential properties typically see reductions of 5-20%, while commercial properties may achieve larger percentage savings. We'll provide realistic expectations after reviewing your specific situation.
What's the deadline for filing a property tax appeal?
In Florida, you generally have 25 days from when property tax notices are mailed to file an appeal. Missing this deadline means waiting another full year, so it's important to act quickly.
Do I have to pay anything upfront?
Most residential and commercial appeals are handled on contingency, meaning no upfront costs. You only pay our fee if we successfully reduce your taxes. Complex cases may require different arrangements which we'll discuss during consultation.
Will appealing my taxes trigger an audit or investigation?
No, filing a legitimate property tax appeal is your legal right and won't trigger additional scrutiny. County assessors handle thousands of appeals annually as part of normal business.
How long does the appeal process take?
Most appeals take 3-6 months from filing to resolution. Simple cases may resolve sooner through negotiation, while complex commercial properties might take longer if hearings are required.
Can you appeal if my taxes went up due to improvements?
Yes, we can review whether the increased assessment accurately reflects the improvement's actual impact on market value. Sometimes assessors overvalue improvements or apply increases incorrectly.
What happens if we lose the appeal?
If your appeal is unsuccessful, your taxes remain at the current assessed amount. There are no penalties for filing a legitimate appeal, and you can try again next year if circumstances change.
Do you handle appeals in counties outside Jacksonville?
Yes, we serve all Northeast Florida counties including Clay, Nassau, St. Johns, and Baker counties. Each county has different procedures, but we're experienced with all local requirements.
