Make sure your property is valued fairly.

With a detailed analysis of comparable sales and property characteristics, you'll have a clearer understanding of your home's value when reviewing your assessment.
When this appraisal may help.
Reviewing an assessed value
An appraisal can provide an independent analysis of a home's characteristics and relevant market evidence to compare with assessment information.
Preparing for an appeal
A property owner may seek valuation evidence when preparing an appeal, subject to the applicable jurisdiction, deadlines, and filing requirements.
Documenting condition and features
A report can describe property characteristics and comparable sales relevant to the valuation question. It does not guarantee a change to an assessment.
What to expect.
Review the notice and deadline
Share the assessment notice, jurisdiction, filing deadline, intended use, and any report requirements so timing and assignment fit can be reviewed.
Analyze the property and market
If accepted, the analysis considers relevant property characteristics and market evidence within the agreed scope and effective date.
Use the report in your review
The appraisal documents an independent opinion of value. The taxing authority determines appeal procedures and outcomes.
