///CALIFORNIA · RESIDENTIAL & COMMERCIAL PROPERTY TAX APPEALS
Commercial buildings are valued by mass-appraisal formulas that often miss the mark. We read the county's own data to find where yours is over-assessed, file the appeal, and handle the hearing. No upfront cost, no account to create. If we don't win you a reduction, you pay nothing.
The county sets your value with a mass-appraisal model: one set of formulas applied across thousands of parcels at once. It doesn't walk your building. It rarely accounts for vacancy, deferred maintenance, an odd layout, or what the space is actually worth in your market.
So over-assessment is common, and it isn't your mistake. Left alone, it repeats every year you don't appeal. The fix is to put your building's real numbers in front of the county.
Our fee is a share of your first-year savings, set by your state and quoted in writing before you sign. If we don't win you a reduction, you pay nothing. Not a dollar. There's no account to create and nothing to pay up front.
We pull the county's own data and comparable assessments and check whether your building is carried above what it's worth.
If there's a case, you sign two short forms. One authorizes us to file, one is our agreement. It takes a few minutes.
We file before the county deadline and carry the appeal through, including the hearing if there is one.
We build the case from the county's own comparable assessments and public sale records. The same data the county used to set your value, read back the other way. You see exactly why we think your building may be over-assessed.
We only file when the data supports a real case. If it doesn't, we tell you. We don't file weak appeals, and we don't bill you for trying.
Evidence-backed commercial appeals win reductions in the majority of cases: 62-88% nationally according to industry benchmarks.
California assessments start from a Proposition 13 base-year value that rises about 2% a year. Proposition 8 requires the assessor to enroll the lower of that factored base value or the property's current market value, so when the market falls below the roll, a decline-in-value appeal applies. Several counties offer an informal review with the assessor first; formal appeals go to the county Assessment Appeals Board, and a Prop 8 reduction is reviewed every year, holding while the market supports it.
Proposition 13 sets a base-year value that rises about 2% a year. Proposition 8 requires the assessor to enroll the lower of that factored base value or the property's current market value. A decline-in-value reduction is temporary and reviewed every year, so it holds while the market supports it, and we watch the re-enrollment so it isn't quietly walked back.
