How They Can Help

Our core services include residential property tax appeals for single-family homes, condos, and townhomes. We analyze your property's assessed value against comparable sales and current market conditions. For commercial clients, we provide comprehensive assessment reviews for office buildings, retail centers, industrial properties, and multi-family complexes. We offer valuation analysis services that examine your property's assessed value for potential discrepancies. Our team prepares and files all necessary paperwork with the Franklin County Board of Revision and Ohio Board of Tax Appeals. We also provide consultation services for property owners considering appeals, helping you understand the process and potential outcomes before moving forward.

What to Expect

Your appeal process begins with a free assessment review where we analyze your property's current valuation. We'll examine recent comparable sales, market trends, and assessment methodology to determine if an appeal makes financial sense. If we proceed, we'll gather supporting documentation including appraisals, sales data, and property condition reports. We prepare and file all required forms with the appropriate tax boards. Throughout the process, we keep you informed of deadlines and developments. Most residential appeals resolve within 3-6 months, while commercial cases may take 6-12 months depending on complexity.

Service Area

We primarily serve Franklin County including Columbus, Dublin, Westerville, and surrounding communities. Our services extend to neighboring counties including Delaware, Licking, and Fairfield counties. We're familiar with assessment practices and market conditions throughout central Ohio, giving us insight into local valuation trends and successful appeal strategies.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my property is overassessed?
Compare your assessed value to recent sales of similar properties in your area. If your assessment seems high relative to market conditions, you may have grounds for appeal.
What's the deadline for filing property tax appeals?
In Ohio, you typically have until March 31st to file complaints with your county board of revision. Missing this deadline means waiting until the next triennial update.
How much can I save with a successful appeal?
Savings vary widely but typically range from a few hundred to several thousand dollars annually. Commercial properties can see even larger reductions.
Do I have to pay upfront fees?
Most residential appeals are handled on contingency, so you pay only if we reduce your taxes. Commercial cases may have different fee structures.
Will appealing my taxes trigger an audit or increase my assessment?
No, filing an appeal cannot result in a higher assessment. The worst outcome is that your taxes stay the same.
How long does the appeal process take?
Residential appeals typically resolve in 3-6 months. Commercial appeals can take 6-12 months depending on complexity and hearing schedules.
What documentation do you need for my appeal?
We'll need your property deed, recent tax statements, and any appraisals or improvements documentation. We can help gather additional supporting materials.
Can I appeal every year?
You can file appeals annually if you believe your assessment is incorrect, but Ohio's triennial reappraisal system means most significant changes occur every three years.
