We can help mitigate your property tax liability through specific strategies, including property tax relief, transactional due diligence, reporting, and legislative reform.
Property Tax Relief: Exemptions, Deferrals, and Special Assessments
Your property may qualify for an exemption, deferral, or special assessment if it includes new construction, alternative energy systems, government restrictions, specific land uses, or industrial investments. Property tax laws differ in each state in terms of what forms of tax relief and incentives may be available. We can help determine which options may be appropriate for your specific project.
Transactional Due Diligence
We can consult with buyers or sellers on property tax issues that arise from sales and acquisitions. We can help you structure your agreement to include provisions about property tax issues that clearly protect your rights and correctly allocate your liability.
Reporting
We can help you navigate state compliance and reporting requirements. For example, we can work with your staff to facilitate timely submission of industrial property returns and personal property tax reports.
Legislative Reform
Market and industry conditions are dynamic, not static. These conditions can negatively affect your property valuation and that of similar businesses - or even of your industry as a whole. We can interact with industry lobbyists seeking legislative reform relative to taxpayer rights and valuation and appeal procedures.
Property Tax Appeals
Once it's been determined your property tax assessment is not equitable, we can provide legal assistance to file appeals and argue your case through the administrative and judicial process. More.
