How They Can Help

Our comprehensive property tax services include residential and commercial property tax appeals, assessment reviews, and valuation disputes. We conduct thorough property inspections to identify factors that may support a reduction, including structural issues, market changes, or assessment errors. For commercial clients, we analyze income and expense data, comparable sales, and replacement costs to challenge overvaluations. We also provide ongoing assessment monitoring services, alerting you to significant increases and automatically filing appeals when warranted. Our team prepares all necessary documentation, including property condition reports, market analysis, and formal appeal petitions. We represent clients at Board of Review hearings and Michigan Tax Tribunal proceedings, presenting evidence and advocating for fair assessments. Additionally, we offer property tax planning services to help minimize future tax burdens through strategic property improvements and timing.

What to Expect

Your property tax appeal process begins with our free consultation where we review your assessment and property details. We'll conduct a comprehensive property evaluation, analyzing your assessment against comparable properties and current market conditions. If we identify grounds for appeal, we'll prepare all necessary documentation and file your appeal with the appropriate review board. Throughout the process, we handle all communications with tax authorities and keep you informed of progress. We'll represent you at hearings if required, presenting evidence and arguing for reduced assessments. Most appeals are resolved within 3-6 months, and you'll only pay if we successfully reduce your taxes.

Service Area

We serve Troy and the greater Detroit metropolitan area, including Oakland County, Macomb County, and Wayne County. Our team is familiar with assessment practices across dozens of municipalities and townships in southeastern Michigan. We regularly appear before local Boards of Review and the Michigan Tax Tribunal, giving us extensive experience with various jurisdictions' procedures and requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my property taxes are too high?
Compare your assessed value to recent sales of similar properties in your area. If your assessment seems high relative to market value, you may have grounds for appeal.
What's the deadline for filing property tax appeals?
Most Michigan jurisdictions hold Board of Review hearings in March with specific filing deadlines. You can also appeal to the Michigan Tax Tribunal within certain timeframes.
How much can I expect to save on property taxes?
Savings vary widely depending on your property and situation. Successful appeals typically reduce assessments by 10-30%, resulting in proportional tax savings.
Do I have to appear at hearings myself?
No, we can represent you at all hearings and handle all communications with tax authorities. Most clients prefer this approach to avoid taking time off work.
What information do I need to provide for an appeal?
We'll need your assessment notice, property details, and any information about property condition issues or recent improvements. We'll gather additional supporting documentation.
Can I appeal if I already appealed last year?
Yes, you can appeal annually if you believe your assessment is still excessive. Each year's assessment is evaluated independently.
What happens if my appeal is successful?
You'll receive a reduced tax bill and potentially a refund for overpaid taxes. The reduced assessment typically applies to the current tax year.
Are there any risks to appealing my property taxes?
Assessments can theoretically be increased, but this rarely happens when appeals are properly prepared and presented. We only pursue appeals with strong merit.
