Property Tax Assessment Attorney

[Prab C.]

Hi, does anyone have any good recommendations for an affordable property tax attorney in Indianapolis who can help challenge property tax assessments for your investments? Ideally, only get paid a success fee based on how much they help you save?

Thanks

Hey @Prab C. have you tried to do this yourself?  I just did it for a property I have in Indy... a single family that they doubled the assessment on.  I was basically like "with the current covid19 market there is no way that you can justify a 100% increase in its value".  

Now, if you've already challenged this and they haven't budged you might need a lawyer but to challenge it initially you can do that yourself, you don't need to pay a lawyer to do that:

Just fill out everything on this form.  If you can provide assessments or comps then awesome.  I just told them that with Covid19 all of the values are out the window and went for that approach.  Sorry if you're already way past this step but fingered I'd mention it.
