Challenge your property tax rate with an appraisal.
A tax appeal appraisal can be conducted when a homeowner believes their property tax assessment is too high, and they want to challenge it. During a tax appeal appraisal, the true and fair market value of the property is determined for the tax year in question. This information is then used as evidence to show that the county or the city over-assessed the property. In many cases, a tax appeal appraisal can help homeowners lower their property taxes.
If you want to challenge your property tax rate, having a tax appeal appraisal conducted on your home is beneficial for several reasons:
- You can strengthen your case when appealing to the county assessor or the tax board.
- You can correct errors in the assessor’s records.
- You can avoid paying too much for property taxes.
