How They Can Help

Phoenix Pure Tax Resolution offers property tax appeal services alongside their broader tax resolution practice. For property owners, they handle assessment reviews, informal petitions to the Maricopa County Assessor, and formal appeals to the State Board of Equalization. They focus on identifying where assessed values diverge from actual market data and building documented cases that give clients the best chance of a meaningful reduction. On the tax services side, they assist with Arizona state and local tax issues that sometimes intersect with property matters. Businesses dealing with audits, back taxes, or compliance questions can find resolution services alongside property tax help under one roof. This breadth is useful for clients who have multiple tax problems to address at once. They also handle situations where taxpayers are disputing how improvements or new construction have been assessed. Phoenix's active construction environment means newly built additions, accessory structures, and renovations often trigger reassessments that don't always reflect actual added value. Phoenix Pure Tax Resolution reviews these situations and challenges inflated post-construction assessments when warranted. Their approach emphasizes documentation and deadlines, keeping clients out of trouble on the procedural side while building the substantive case for reduction.

What to Expect

The process at Phoenix Pure Tax Resolution starts with a direct review of your current Notice of Value and a comparison against recent market activity. They'll tell you upfront whether there's a realistic basis for appeal and what range of reduction seems achievable based on available data. No vague promises, just an honest read on where things stand. If the case has merit, they prepare the petition, pull supporting market data, and handle all filings with the Maricopa County Assessor. Most informal appeals resolve within a few months. If the result isn't satisfactory, they escalate to the State Board of Equalization and continue advocating for the client. Throughout the process, they track Arizona's strict filing deadlines and make sure nothing falls through the cracks. For clients with multiple tax issues, they can coordinate property tax work with other resolution services so everything moves forward in parallel rather than sequentially.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Notice of Value and what do I do when I receive one?
Your Notice of Value is the document the Maricopa County Assessor sends each year showing the assessed value of your property, which is used to calculate your property tax bill. When you receive it, compare the assessed value to recent sales of similar properties and your own sense of what the property is worth. If the number seems high, contact a property tax professional promptly since appeal deadlines start running from the notice date.
How does Phoenix Pure Tax Resolution calculate its fees?
For residential appeals, they typically work on contingency, taking a percentage of the documented tax savings in the first year. Commercial and complex matters are structured as flat fees or hourly depending on scope. Everything is explained upfront before any work begins.
What is the difference between assessed value and market value?
Market value is what a property would sell for between a willing buyer and seller. Assessed value is what the county uses to calculate taxes. In Arizona, residential properties are assessed at a percentage of full cash value, currently 10% for residential properties. The accuracy of the assessed value relative to actual market value determines whether an appeal makes sense.
Can I handle a property tax appeal myself?
You can file an informal petition with the Maricopa County Assessor without professional help. However, having documentation organized correctly, understanding the assessor's methodology, and knowing when and how to escalate significantly improves outcomes. For higher-value properties, the cost of professional help is usually well below the savings a successful appeal produces.
Does filing an appeal affect my property tax payment due dates?
No, you still need to pay your property taxes on time even if an appeal is pending. Arizona does not allow deferral of tax payments during the appeal process. If the appeal succeeds, the difference is typically applied as a credit against future tax bills.
How are property taxes calculated in Arizona?
Arizona property taxes are based on the assessed value multiplied by the applicable assessment ratio, then multiplied by the total tax rate for your jurisdiction. For residential properties, the assessment ratio is 10%, meaning a property with a $500,000 full cash value has a $50,000 assessed value, which is then multiplied by your local tax rate.
What happens if I miss the appeal deadline?
Missing the deadline generally means you cannot appeal that year's assessed value. You'll need to wait for next year's notice and appeal within that year's window. Given the firm's attention to deadlines, they make it a priority to flag the timeline at the start of any engagement.
Can recent home improvements increase my assessed value?
Yes, the assessor can add value for permitted improvements like room additions, new pools, or significant renovations. The question is whether the amount added accurately reflects the improvement's contribution to market value. Assessors sometimes overvalue improvements, and Phoenix Pure Tax Resolution specifically reviews these situations as part of their services.
