Our comprehensive property tax services include residential assessment appeals for single-family homes, condos, and multi-family properties. We handle commercial property tax challenges for office buildings, retail spaces, industrial facilities, and investment properties. Our team conducts thorough property valuations, comparing your assessment against recent sales data and market conditions. We also provide ongoing assessment monitoring services, automatically reviewing your property's valuation each year and alerting you to potential appeal opportunities.

Our experts prepare detailed evidence packages, present cases before local assessment boards, and pursue formal appeals when necessary.

What to Expect

Your property tax appeal process begins with a free consultation where we review your current assessment and recent comparable sales. We'll determine if you have grounds for an appeal and estimate potential savings. Once you engage our services, we conduct a comprehensive property analysis, gathering evidence including recent sales data, property condition reports, and market studies. We prepare all necessary documentation and file your appeal within statutory deadlines. Throughout the process, we handle all communications with assessors and represent you at hearings. Most appeals resolve within 60-90 days, with tax savings appearing on your next bill.

We serve the entire Minneapolis metropolitan area, including Hennepin, Ramsey, Dakota, and Anoka counties. Our team is familiar with assessment practices across all local jurisdictions and maintains relationships with assessors throughout the region. While based in Minneapolis, we regularly handle cases in surrounding suburbs including Bloomington, Plymouth, Minnetonka, and Edina. Our extensive local knowledge allows us to tailor appeal strategies to specific assessor preferences and local market conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my property is over-assessed?
Compare your assessment to recent sales of similar properties in your area. 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 Minnesota?
You typically have 60 days from when assessment notices are mailed to file an appeal. Deadlines vary by county, so check with your local assessor's office.
Will appealing my assessment trigger an audit or increase scrutiny?
No, filing a legitimate appeal is your legal right and won't trigger additional scrutiny. Assessors expect appeals and have formal processes to handle them.
How much can I expect to save on a successful appeal?
Savings vary widely, but our clients typically see 15-30% reductions in their property tax bills. The actual dollar savings depend on your property's assessed value and local tax rates.
Do I need to pay upfront for your services?
Most residential appeals are handled on contingency, so you don't pay unless we reduce your taxes. Commercial properties may require upfront fees depending on complexity.
How long do property tax reductions last?
Successful appeals typically provide savings until the next reassessment cycle, usually 2-4 years. Some reductions may carry forward longer if market conditions support the lower valuation.
Can you appeal both the land and building assessments?
Yes, we can challenge any component of your property assessment including land value, building value, and any special assessments. We analyze each component separately to maximize potential savings.
What happens if we lose the appeal?
If the appeal is unsuccessful, you owe nothing under our contingency fee arrangement for residential properties. Your assessment remains unchanged, and you can try again during the next appeal period.
