Philadelphia Property Tax Appeal Deadline

Philadelphia Property Tax Appeal Deadline

Rental Property Investor · Philadelphia, PA · Member since 2015 · 480 posts · 362 votes

When I discovered the option to appeal property taxes every year for free, it saved me a very nice sum.  But I was under the assumption for years that In Philadelphia, attorneys are only willing to handle appeals for a significant upfront fee with no guarantees of success. I decided to research this more and was able to find someone who does a free evaluation and then submit the appeal for a success fee only.  I know I can not share a link here but invite anyone to reach out before the Oct 3 deadline.  There is a lot of  money left on the table for many owners who do not bother to appeal because they do not know how.

    I appealed 5 of my properties and got 3 winning cases back!

    I will admit, the one property saved me 100 bucks for the year. LOL!

    Just seeing this. I know i'm late on it but 

    A) can you share the contact with me 

    &

    B) Can this go the other direction? Meaning if a reassessment is done & they find out its too low (which i doubt, just curious) can they raise it?
