How They Can Help

We offer complete property tax appeal services from initial assessment review through formal hearings and potential state-level appeals. Our residential services include challenging incorrect assessments, protesting excessive increases, and identifying exemptions for qualifying properties. We handle complex market analyses to demonstrate appropriate valuations based on current conditions. For commercial properties, we provide sophisticated income and expense analysis, depreciation studies, and comparable sales evaluations. Our services extend to industrial properties, retail centers, office buildings, and multi-family residential complexes. We also assist with special use valuations for agricultural properties, tax-exempt organization appeals, and new construction classification issues. Additionally, we offer proactive assessment monitoring to identify future appeal opportunities and ensure ongoing tax efficiency.

What to Expect

We begin every engagement with a thorough property evaluation and market analysis to determine appeal viability. Our team reviews your assessment history, analyzes comparable properties, and examines current market conditions to identify potential savings. If we determine an appeal has merit, we develop a comprehensive strategy tailored to your property's unique characteristics. We handle all paperwork preparation and filing requirements while keeping you informed throughout the process. Our representation includes presenting evidence at county board hearings, cross-examining assessors, and arguing for appropriate reductions. If necessary, we pursue appeals to the state level to ensure you receive fair treatment under Utah tax law.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do property assessments work in Utah County?
Utah County assessors evaluate properties annually using sales data, cost approaches, and income methods for commercial properties. They're required to assess at market value, but errors and outdated information can result in excessive assessments.
What evidence do you use to challenge my assessment?
We use comparable sales data, property condition reports, market analyses, and expert appraisals when necessary. For commercial properties, we analyze income and expense data to demonstrate appropriate valuations.
How quickly do I need to act after receiving my assessment notice?
Utah law generally provides 45 days to file appeals, but deadlines can vary. Contact us immediately upon receiving your notice to ensure we have adequate time for preparation.
Can appealing my assessment result in higher taxes?
Utah law prohibits increasing assessments during the appeal process. Your assessment can only stay the same or be reduced through the appeal.
Do you handle appeals for all property types?
We handle residential, commercial, industrial, and agricultural properties. However, we're selective about cases and only accept those where we see genuine potential for meaningful reductions.
What happens if we lose the appeal at the county level?
We can appeal adverse decisions to the Utah State Tax Commission. While this extends the timeline, it provides another opportunity for review by independent hearing officers.
How do you determine your fee percentage?
Fees depend on case complexity, potential savings amount, and required time investment. We discuss fee structures during initial consultations and provide written agreements before beginning work.
Should I get my own appraisal before appealing?
Not necessarily. We can often succeed using comparable sales and market data. Independent appraisals are expensive and we only recommend them when essential for complex cases.
