Frequently Asked Questions

What types of properties do you handle appeals for?
We handle residential properties including single-family homes, condos, townhomes, and small multi-family buildings. Commercial services cover office buildings, retail centers, industrial facilities, and investment properties of all sizes.
How much can I expect to save through a property tax appeal?
Savings vary based on individual circumstances, but successful appeals typically achieve 10-30% assessment reductions. High-value properties and overassessed commercial buildings often see larger percentage savings.
What if my property's market value has declined since the last assessment?
Declining property values provide strong grounds for appeal. We'll analyze recent comparable sales and market conditions to document value decreases and pursue appropriate assessment reductions.
Can you help with properties in multiple counties?
Yes, we handle appeals in Johnson County, Wyandotte County Kansas, and Jackson County Missouri. Each jurisdiction has different procedures, but our experience covers all major Kansas City area counties.
How do you determine if my property is overassessed?
We conduct comprehensive market analysis comparing your assessment to recent sales of similar properties, considering location, condition, size, and other value-affecting factors. Statistical analysis helps identify assessment inequities.
What happens if the appeals board denies our appeal?
Failed appeals at the county level can often be appealed to state district court. We'll evaluate the merits of further appeal and advise you on the best course of action based on your specific situation.
Do you offer services for agricultural or exempt properties?
We help property owners obtain agricultural use classifications, homestead exemptions, and disability/senior citizen tax relief. These specialized applications require proper documentation and procedural compliance.
How long do assessment reductions typically last?
Successful appeals reduce assessments for the current tax year, but future assessments may increase based on market conditions. We offer monitoring services to identify when future appeals become beneficial.
