Why may you be entitled to a reduction?

Quite often, people pay real estate taxes based on the assessed values from years ago. If the value of your home has gone down since the assessment, you still end up paying property taxes based on your past assessment. In order to fix this situation, we help you file a property tax appeal otherwise known as a property tax grievance. If your home was worth, for example, $900,000 a few years ago and now it would sell for $600,000, why should you be paying taxes based on $900,000? With most homes down 20%-40% in value, filing a property tax appeal to lower your real estate taxes is one of the few no-brainers in today's economy for lowering expenses.

Why is it critical to appeal NOW?

When real estate values start going UP, your chances of getting a property tax reduction start going down. If you file a property tax reduction before this time however, you can save money even AFTER your property value has gone up.

What does it cost?

There is NO CHARGE until we succeed in reducing your property taxes. Our fee of 60% of the first year's reduction is payable AFTER you receive legal notification that your assessment has been lowered. Unlike many of our competitors, there are NO up-front fees and NO hidden charges. Our charge is for the first year only, in all subsequent years you keep 100% of the savings!
