How They Can Help

Our comprehensive property tax services include assessment reviews, formal appeals, and valuation disputes for all property types. We handle residential homes, commercial buildings, industrial facilities, and vacant land assessments. Our team conducts thorough market analysis and works with certified appraisers to build strong cases for tax reduction. We represent clients before county assessors, boards of equalization, and in district court when necessary. Additional services include tax exemption applications for qualified properties, agricultural land classification appeals, and consultation on property tax implications for real estate transactions. We also provide ongoing monitoring services to identify assessment increases that may warrant challenge in future years.

What to Expect

Our appeal process begins with a comprehensive property assessment review within 30 days of receiving your notice of valuation. We analyze recent sales data, property conditions, and market trends to determine appeal viability. If we identify grounds for reduction, we file the necessary paperwork and gather supporting evidence including appraisals, market studies, and property condition reports. We handle all hearings and negotiations, keeping you informed throughout the process while working to achieve the maximum possible tax reduction.

Service Area

We serve all of Arapahoe County including Englewood, Littleton, Centennial, and surrounding Denver metro communities. Our practice extends throughout the South Metro area, with particular expertise in Englewood's unique property market conditions and local assessment practices.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much can I save on my property taxes?
Savings vary by case, but our clients typically see 15-25% annual reductions. The amount depends on how much your property was over-assessed and current market conditions.
What's the deadline for filing a property tax appeal?
In Colorado, you have 30 days from receiving your Notice of Valuation to file an appeal. Missing this deadline means waiting until next year.
Do I need an appraisal to appeal my assessment?
Not always, but professional appraisals strengthen your case significantly. We'll advise whether an appraisal is necessary based on your specific situation.
Will appealing my taxes cause problems with the assessor?
No, appeals are a normal part of the process and Colorado law prohibits retaliation. Assessors expect and handle thousands of appeals annually.
How long does the appeal process take?
Most appeals resolve within 3-6 months, though complex cases may take longer. We'll provide timeline estimates specific to your case type.
Can I appeal if I just bought my property?
Yes, you can appeal regardless of when you purchased. Sometimes recent sales actually support appeal arguments if market conditions have changed.
What happens if we lose the appeal?
If unsuccessful at the county level, we can appeal to district court. With contingency pricing, you don't pay attorney fees for unsuccessful appeals.
Should I appeal every year?
Not necessarily - we evaluate each year's assessment individually. Frivolous appeals can hurt future cases, so we only proceed when there's genuine merit.
