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 comparable sales, you may have grounds for appeal.
What's the deadline for filing a property tax appeal in Washington?
Appeal deadlines vary by county but are typically 30-60 days from when tax notices are mailed. King County appeals must be filed by July 1st for the current tax year.
Can I appeal my property taxes if values in my area have increased?
Yes, general market increases don't prevent appeals if your specific property is overvalued relative to similar properties. Individual circumstances matter more than overall trends.
How long does the appeals process take?
Most appeals are resolved within 3-6 months, though complex commercial cases may take longer. Informal negotiations often resolve cases faster than formal hearings.
What happens if my appeal is unsuccessful?
If working on contingency, you owe no fees for unsuccessful appeals. You can also consider appealing to the state Board of Tax Appeals for a second review.
Do I need to attend the appeal hearing?
While not required, your presence can be helpful. Kennedy Tax Solutions handles the presentation and technical arguments while you provide property-specific insights.
Can commercial property appeals save significant money?
Yes, commercial appeals often result in substantial savings due to higher assessed values. Income-producing properties have multiple valuation approaches that can be challenged.
How much documentation do you need for my appeal?
They handle most research, but property maintenance records, recent improvements, and any damage documentation help strengthen your case. Recent appraisals are also valuable.
