Specializing in Residential, Farm, Vacant, and Recreational Properties

Our Services & Fees

First, it is important for you to understand that we do not offer opinions of value. If you would like to have your property appraised, you should contact a local certified appraiser that is familiar with recent comparable sales and the overall market for your area. We do not work on a contingency fee or percentage basis. Any tax savings that may result from the work that we perform is yours to keep year after year. We do not contact any assessment or taxation officials on your behalf without having your prior authorization. And finally, we are not attorneys. Knowing the assessment profession as we do, we feel there are many alternatives to litigation. However, if that is the process you wish to pursue or you need legal advice for other matters, we would like to recommend a cost effective way of getting that legal advice from the best lawyers in North America for pennies a day!

The Professional Services We Offer...

Because of our combined 100+ years of experience in assessment administration, we know that it is very unproductive to have the assessor and the taxpayer placed in adversarial positions. We firmly believe that the concept of challenging your assessors judgment is totally unproductive. What most people don't realize is that the taxpayer and assessor are really on the same side and merely looking for a fair and equitable assessment. Quite often the problem is that one or both are lacking the information necessary to arrive at roughly the same conclusion and that is perhaps where we can help.

Within 24 hrs. of joining our service we will contact you by phone (if desired) to discuss any immediate questions you may have. We will also send you a package by Priority Mail which will include a property profile questionnaire with a return postage-paid envelope, a Kodak MAX-HQ* camera with instructions and a postage-paid film mailer to Shutterfly – Online Film Processing, and a private, personalized e-mail account where you will be able to direct all of your property tax related questions and concerns throughout the next twelve month period.

Upon receiving your completed property profile back from you and the photos from Shutterfly, we will compile a real property inventory and exemption report which we will maintain in our offices and make available to you by mail. Depending on the age, style, and location of your property, we may point out certain areas that have caused misunderstandings in the past between taxpayers and assessors and recommend ways we can help you to resolve these oversights or, if you would like, we will be happy to contact the assessor on your behalf to do this for you.

Once we have collected all of this necessary information we will be happy to address all of your specific assessment and property tax related questions and concerns for the next twelve month period. For our compiling of the real property inventory records, the exemption eligibility report, and our year-long consulting and advisory service, we charge initial annual flat rate of $279 for the first year for each separately assessed parcel. If you value the services we offer, you will have an opportunity to renew at a discounted rate prior to the anniversary of your joining. We look forward to serving you.

* These high quality Kodak MAX-HQ cameras contain 27 exposures. Once you have taken the photographs we need for our files, as per our instruction sheet, any exposures left may be used at your discretion. We pay in advance for the film processing. Once you send these photos to Shutterfly.com, we will make your entire photo album available to you online. If you want to have any prints made in that album, you may do so at that time at Shutterfly's low rates. To join Shutterfly.com simply click on the link above.
