Property Tax Assessment Appeal Appraisals

Need your tax bill to be a little lower?

Burton & Company can provided a formal appraisal to be submitted to the assessor to support a current market value.  If this value is lower than the current assessed value, your new assessed value, and your property taxes, may be reduced.

Frequently Asked Questions re: Property Tax Appeals from the Board of Equalization

Our services will be unbiased and thorough. Please do not request a "low" value.  The value will be based on existing proximate listings, pending sales & closed sales that are similar to your property. Your report will be completed by a fully licensed, experienced appraiser certified by the Office of Real Estate Appraisers. It will stand up to scrutiny by the Assessor's office staff.

Most property assessment appraisals are $300-$400. Sliding scale discounts may be available, just ask.

We can be present at an appeal hearing. This may be needed if an assessor's office does not agree with the opinion of value.  There will be an additional charge for this, by quote.
