An experienced Realtor could assist you in putting together the correct information to support the claim for a change in the assessment of the property appraiser. Keep in mind the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>You must demonstrate that your Just value is incorrect, not that it is unfair. Avoid comparing the assessed value of your property with your neighbors&#8217;s, or how much they pay in taxes.<\/li>\n<li>Your supporting information must demonstrate what your property was worth on January 1st using data from the previous year.<\/li>\n<li>Make sure similar properties are being compared.<\/li>\n<li>What others paid for their properties is what it is relevant in the appeal, not what you paid for it.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>These are some of the rules that the author informs need to be followed when formally appealing:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The appeal&#8217;s filling fee is $15.00 per property.<\/li>\n<li>You must obtain at least 25 days notice of your hearing date. You can re-schedule once.<\/li>\n<li>Petitioners before the board may be represented by an attorney or agent.<\/li>\n<li>A condominium association may group their appeals.<\/li>\n<li>Be prepared -with supportive documentation- to prove that the assessment placed on your property is incorrect.<\/li>\n<li>Don&#8217;t compare your assessment with other assessments, but your Just Value with the Just Value of your comparables.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Ask an experienced Realtor or contact the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.irestudies.com\/page\/page\/4269936.htm\" title=\"Institute of Real Estate Studies\">Institute of Real Estate Studies <\/a>for more information on how to prepare your appeal.<\/p>\n<p>Good luck!&#8230;&#8230;and remember to be polite&#8230;&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Do you think you are paying too much property taxes on homestead and non-homestead properties?
