How They Can Help

Property tax appeal services form the core of the practice, with comprehensive assessment reviews that examine your property's valuation against comparable sales and market data. The firm handles residential tax protests for homeowners facing inflated assessments, often uncovering errors in square footage, property condition ratings, or inappropriate comparable properties used by assessors. Commercial property tax consulting includes income approach analysis, reviewing rental rates and cap rates used in assessments, and challenging inflated commercial valuations. Valuation analysis services provide detailed reports comparing your assessment to similar properties and current market conditions. The firm also offers ongoing assessment monitoring, alerting clients when their property values increase significantly and appeal opportunities arise. Pre-purchase tax analysis helps buyers understand potential future tax liabilities before closing.

What to Expect

Your journey begins with a free property assessment review where we analyze your current tax bill and compare it to similar properties. If we identify potential savings, we'll discuss our contingency fee structure and begin gathering evidence including recent sales data, property condition documentation, and market analysis. Once you approve moving forward, we file the necessary appeals paperwork and begin building your case. This includes property inspections, comparable sales research, and preparing detailed valuation reports. We handle all communications with tax authorities and represent you at hearings if needed. Most cases resolve within 4-6 months, and you'll receive regular updates throughout the process.

Service Area

Primary service area covers Clark County including Las Vegas, Henderson, North Las Vegas, and Boulder City. We also handle appeals in Washoe County for commercial properties over $2 million in assessed value. Our team travels throughout Nevada for larger commercial appeals and can coordinate with local attorneys for complex cases requiring litigation support in rural counties.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much can you typically save on property taxes?
Successful appeals average 15-25% reductions in assessed value, translating to similar tax savings. Results vary based on how overassessed your property is and local market conditions.
What if my appeal is unsuccessful?
You owe nothing on contingency cases if we don't achieve savings. Even unsuccessful appeals often prevent future over-assessments and provide valuable market data.
How long do I have to file an appeal?
Nevada typically allows appeals within 30 days of receiving your tax notice. Earlier filing gives us more time to build a strong case.
Will appealing my taxes cause problems with the assessor?
No, appeals are legal rights and assessors expect them. There's no retaliation, and the process is designed to be fair to taxpayers.
Do you handle appeals for rental properties?
Yes, we handle all types of residential and commercial properties including single-family rentals, apartment buildings, and office complexes.
What documents do I need to start an appeal?
We need your recent tax notices and any documentation about property condition or recent sales in your area. We'll gather most other evidence needed.
Can you reduce taxes on new construction?
Yes, new construction often gets over-assessed based on construction costs rather than market value. We've successfully appealed many new builds.
How often should I have my assessment reviewed?
Annual reviews are ideal, especially in volatile markets. We offer monitoring services that alert you to significant assessment changes.
