Services
How They Can Help
Our property tax practice focuses on comprehensive assessment challenges for both residential and commercial properties throughout Miami-Dade County. We handle everything from simple homestead exemption issues to complex commercial valuation disputes involving multi-million dollar properties. For residential clients, we provide thorough assessment reviews, homestead exemption applications, and appeals for properties that have been over-assessed due to incorrect square footage, outdated comparable sales, or failure to account for property defects. Our commercial services include income-approach valuations, market analysis, and appeals for office buildings, retail properties, warehouses, and investment properties. We also assist with tax certificate purchases and redemptions, helping investors understand the complexities of Florida's tax sale process.
What to Expect
We start every case with a detailed property analysis and client consultation to understand your specific situation and goals. For international clients, we often conduct these meetings via video conference to accommodate different time zones and travel constraints. Once we identify potential grounds for appeal, we conduct thorough market research and property analysis to build your case. This includes reviewing comparable sales, analyzing property characteristics, and identifying any assessment errors. We then prepare and file all necessary paperwork, handle communications with tax authorities, and represent you at hearings if required. Throughout the process, we provide regular updates and clear explanations of each step.
Service Area
We serve property owners throughout Miami-Dade County, with particular focus on Miami, Miami Beach, Coral Gables, and Key Biscayne. Our multilingual capabilities and international perspective make us especially valuable for properties in areas with significant foreign ownership, including downtown Miami condos and luxury waterfront properties.
