How They Can Help

We provide comprehensive property tax reduction services for both residential and commercial properties. Our assessment review process includes detailed property inspections, comparable sales analysis, and identification of assessment errors or inequities. For commercial clients, we handle complex valuation challenges including income approach analysis, market rent studies, and depreciation calculations. Our residential services cover single-family homes, condominiums, and investment properties. We file formal protests with county appraisal districts, represent clients at informal and formal hearings, and pursue appeals to district courts when necessary. Additional services include property tax consulting for new construction, special use valuations for agricultural land, and ongoing monitoring of annual assessments to ensure continued accuracy.

What to Expect

The process begins with a free consultation where we review your property assessment and recent sales data. If we identify potential savings, we'll conduct a detailed property inspection and market analysis. We then prepare and file your protest with the appropriate deadlines. You'll receive regular updates throughout the process. We handle all communications with assessors and represent you at hearings. Most cases resolve at the informal level, but we're prepared to take your case to formal hearings or court appeals if needed. The entire process typically takes 3-6 months from filing to resolution.

Service Area

We serve the greater Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, including Dallas, Collin, Tarrant, Denton, and Rockwall counties. Our team is familiar with the assessment practices and hearing procedures of all major appraisal districts in North Texas. We maintain offices in Dallas and Plano for client convenience and can meet at your property when needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are my chances of getting a tax reduction?
Our success rate is approximately 85% for cases we accept. We only take cases where we identify legitimate grounds for reduction after thorough analysis.
How much can you reduce my property taxes?
Reductions vary widely but average 22% of the assessed value for successful residential cases. Commercial properties often see larger percentage reductions due to complex valuation issues.
When should I file my property tax protest?
Protests must be filed by May 15th in Texas, or within 30 days of receiving your tax bill if it's mailed after May 1st. Earlier filing generally results in better outcomes.
Will protesting my taxes trigger an audit?
No, filing a legitimate protest won't trigger additional scrutiny. Texas law specifically protects your right to appeal assessments without penalty.
Can you help with prior year assessments?
Generally no, but there are limited exceptions for properties that were significantly over-assessed due to clerical errors or illegal assessment practices. Most appeals must be filed in the current tax year.
Do I need to attend hearings if you represent me?
No, we handle all hearings and negotiations on your behalf. However, property owners are welcome to attend if they prefer to be present.
What happens if the assessor increases my value during the protest?
Texas law prohibits assessors from increasing your value during the protest process unless they discover previously unknown improvements or correct obvious errors.
How do you determine if my property is over-assessed?
We analyze recent comparable sales, assess market conditions, review assessment ratios in your area, and inspect your property for condition issues that affect value. Our database helps identify assessment inequities quickly.
