Rex Halverson & Associates

Rex Halverson & Associates has been serving Northern California property owners for over two decades, specializing in property tax appeals and assessment challenges. Our team combines deep knowledge of California's complex property tax system with a proven track record of securing significant reductions for residential and commercial property owners. We understand that property taxes often represent your largest annual expense after your mortgage. That's why we're committed to ensuring you pay only your fair share. Our experienced consultants work exclusively in property tax law, giving us the specialized expertise needed to navigate Placer County's assessment procedures and appeal processes effectively.

Our comprehensive property tax services cover every aspect of assessment review and appeal. We begin with a thorough analysis of your property's assessed value, comparing it against recent sales data, market trends, and assessment methodologies used by local assessors. When we identify overassessments, we prepare detailed appeals that present compelling evidence for value reduction. Our services include formal assessment appeals, informal review requests, Board of Equalization hearings, and ongoing monitoring of your property's assessed value. We handle all paperwork, deadlines, and communications with tax authorities, ensuring nothing falls through the cracks. For commercial properties, we provide specialized valuation analysis considering income approaches, market comparisons, and depreciation factors. We also offer consultation on new construction assessments, Proposition 13 base year value transfers, and assessment appeals for properties affected by natural disasters or economic downturns.

Our appeal process starts with a comprehensive property evaluation and market analysis to determine if your assessment exceeds fair market value. We review comparable sales, inspect your property for any condition issues or functional problems, and analyze the assessor's methodology. If we identify grounds for appeal, we file all necessary paperwork within statutory deadlines. We represent you at informal review meetings and formal hearing proceedings, presenting professional evidence and expert testimony when needed. Throughout the process, we maintain regular communication, keeping you informed of progress and potential outcomes. Most appeals are resolved within 6-12 months, depending on the complexity of the case and hearing schedules.

We serve all of Placer County, with particular focus on Roseville, Rocklin, Lincoln, Auburn, and surrounding communities. Our intimate knowledge of local market conditions, recent sales data, and assessment practices gives us a distinct advantage when challenging property valuations in these rapidly growing areas of Northern California.
