If they aren't able to reduce your taxes then they don't get paid.I assume they are selective about which appeals they will take on since there is no benefit to them or the homeowner to not be able to win an appeal, but I have no knowledge of their internal business logic. 

To avoid going through the same poor experience, keep reading.Even if someone gives you a referral here, do NOT make the mistake of assuming that the PMC will meet your expectations, just because they met the expectations of the referral source.In our experience, the #1 mistake owners make when selecting a Property Management Company (PMC) is ASSUMING instead of CONFIRMING.It's often a case of not doing enough research, as they don't know what they don't know!

I've had negative experiences with a bad general contractor and a non-paying renter (leading to an eviction), so I'm being extra cautious in selecting the right lender this time.Could anyone recommend a trustworthy lender in the Los Angeles area who can guide me through this difficult time?

Hi BP Community,I’m looking to refine my real estate investment strategy and want to make sure I’m on the right track.Here are a few areas I’m focusing on:Property Selection: How do you choose the right type of property for your goals?

In the two counties I looked at there weren't big differences in land appreciation between the areas that the samples were selected. 

It is such a large market that values can fluctuate wildly, depending on location.I would become familiar with the city, select some areas to concentrate, and learn the values of what has traded past 90-180 days, since there may not be a lot if activity.

Most people know that George Washington began his business career as a surveyor; in fact he was selected as county surveyor at the age of 17.  

Select a larger area that is at least 30 minutes in each direction. with maybe a hand full of exceptions I am pretty sure you would be hard pressed to find a mix that represents the demographic cross section of this country and therefor a wide range of neighborhoods.
