PROPERTY TAXES TOO HIGH? APPEAL IS DUE BY DECEMBER 31st

This year, more than usual, we are receiving calls from clients who are questioning the tax assessed value of their homes.  As real estate values skyrocketed, the county has not been far behind – raising the assessed value.  However today, after 24 months of deflation in the market, many homes are now assessed above their current market value and it may be appropriate for some homeowners to appeal their taxes. 

The deadline is just 9 days away and if you would like some assistance appealing your assessment, we can help by providing you with recent sold comparable properties to support your argument.  Below are links to everything you will need except for the sold comparable property data.  For this, we welcome you to call our office and speak with one of our Brokers.  We can assemble a list of the most recent sold homes in your area for you to attach to your appeal.
