Property Tax Appeal Appraiser

Every year, or in some areas twice a year, people open their property tax bills with trepidation. Will the bill be about the same as before, or will it have mysteriously spiked? If the answer turns out to be the latter, the next step is usually to appeal against the new value.

​

Since cities and counties make their operating money from property and other taxes, they will not want to go ahead and reduce the tax bill. In fact, it can seem like an impossible task to get them to do it. Fortunately, it doesn't have to be this way. They are counting on the issue being a matter of your opinion vs. that of their official assessor, and will cite their assessor's credentials as a reason to believe him instead of you. You can therefore cancel that effect by hiring your own qualified professionals to provide tax appeal appraisals.

​

Once you've brought a property tax appeal appraiser onto your side, your case cannot be summarily dismissed as easily. Instead, the appeals board will end up with good arguments for lowering the value of your property, and therefore, your tax bill.

​

We would advise anyone who wants to appeal their property tax valuations to get tax appeal appraisals before appearing at the hearing. This way, the chances of success are far higher than they otherwise would be. Most importantly, the city or county won't be able to portray your claim as wishful thinking. Instead, most will actually consider your claim properly since they'll know that you're more prepared than the average appellant.
