Frequently Asked Questions

How do you determine if my property is over-assessed?
We compare your assessed value to recent sales of similar properties in your area and analyze current market conditions. If your assessment appears high relative to actual market value, an appeal may be worthwhile.
What evidence do you use to support property tax appeals?
We gather comparable sales data, property condition information, market analysis, and any factors that might negatively impact value such as traffic, commercial development, or property defects that assessors may have overlooked.
Can I appeal my business property taxes?
Yes, commercial properties often have greater appeal potential than residential due to the complexity of income-producing property valuations. We frequently handle appeals for small businesses, medical practices, and professional offices.
What happens if the county increases my assessment during an appeal?
While legally possible, assessment increases during appeals are extremely rare. Counties typically lack resources to reevaluate properties upward during the appeal process unless obvious errors are discovered.
Do you provide ongoing property tax monitoring?
Yes, we offer annual monitoring services for clients with multiple properties or those who want proactive assessment review. This helps identify potential appeals early and ensures you don't miss filing deadlines.
How long do property tax appeal savings last?
Assessment reductions typically remain in effect until the next county-wide reassessment, which usually occurs every 4-6 years in Fulton County. However, counties can adjust individual assessments annually if market conditions change significantly.
Can you help with homestead exemptions?
Absolutely. We assist with all types of property tax exemptions including homestead, senior citizen, and disability exemptions. These provide ongoing tax savings separate from assessment appeals.
What's your success rate for property tax appeals?
Our success rate exceeds 75% for cases we accept, with average reductions of 12-20% in assessed value. We're selective about cases we take, focusing on those with strong potential for meaningful savings.
