Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my property assessment is too high?
Compare your assessment to similar properties in your area and recent sales. If your assessment seems significantly higher than comparable properties, you may have grounds for appeal.
What's the deadline for filing property tax appeals in Missouri?
Generally 30 days from receiving your assessment notice, though deadlines vary by county. Contact Tyler promptly if you're considering an appeal to ensure compliance with filing requirements.
Will appealing my assessment hurt my property value?
No, property tax appeals address assessment accuracy for tax purposes and don't affect actual market value or your ability to sell your property.
How much can I expect to save if my appeal is successful?
Savings depend on assessment reduction achieved, but successful appeals often reduce property taxes by hundreds to thousands of dollars annually for several years.
What evidence strengthens property tax appeals?
Recent comparable sales, property condition issues, income data for rental properties, and professional appraisals provide strong supporting evidence for assessment challenges.
Can I appeal every year?
Yes, you have appeal rights annually, though repeated appeals without new evidence may face scrutiny. Tyler helps identify the strongest timing and evidence for maximum success.
Do most property tax appeals succeed?
Success rates vary by case quality and evidence strength. Tyler provides honest assessments of appeal prospects and focuses on cases with strong potential for tax reduction.
How long do appeal results last?
Successful appeals often provide tax savings for multiple years until the next county-wide reassessment, making the investment in professional representation worthwhile.
