Why File a Property Tax Appeal?

Local tax assessors use mass appraisal methods that may not account for:

• Market fluctuations

• Property updates or deteriorations

• Unique home characteristics

• Comparable sales not reflective of true value

Homeowners often find their assessed value is higher than the actual market value. A professional appraisal provides reliable evidence to support your appeal.

​

How Team Appraisal Helps You Win Your Appeal

A Property Tax Appeal Appraisal is not the same as a standard appraisal—it must be highly detailed, compliant with local tax appeal requirements, and supported with airtight data.

​

Our appraisal reports include:

• A complete market-supported value for your property

• Comprehensive comparable sales analysis

• Adjustments for condition, size, location, and market trends

• Clear reasoning to support a lower assessed value

• High-quality photos and property documentation

• Expert knowledge of local assessment practices

We also offer expert testimony, if needed, to support your case during the review or tribunal process.

​

When to Get a Property Tax Appeal Appraisal

You should consider an appraisal if:

• Your tax assessment increased unexpectedly

• Nearby homes are valued significantly lower

• Your property has deferred maintenance or structural issues

• Market sales show your home is over-assessed

• You recently purchased the home at a lower price

• You want expert support during the Board of Review or Tribunal hearing

Early preparation is key—having your appraisal ready before deadlines increases your chances of a successful appeal.
