Welcome to the world of property tax consultants. This is not an over crowded profession like insurance,
mortgage brokers, financial planners, real estate agents and such barraging potential customers with offers.
Likely, potential clients don’t know that property tax consultants even exist.
Most towns do a blanket reassessment of the properties within their borders every 5 to 15 years. The timeframe varies. The lowest contract bid wins. Where a normal appraisal costs hundreds, this low cost broad sweeping appraisal costs maybe $20 per house.
A low-priced bid contractor has to be quick and is on a time budget. Often at the office they copy and pasted erroneous information to save time. It is not a well researched analysis of the facts. It’s a "rush job."
MANY are over assessed in the process. That coupled with FALLING REAL ESTATE PRICES give you a many comparable to choose from.
The towns would go broke if they did a blanket reassessment every year. So if a home was priced by a blanket assessment at the TOP of the real market and now the market value has plummeted … man, do you have an easy case!
Good comparables are EVERYWHERE.
With contingency fees equal to the tax saving you win for the customer, each case won is usually worth several thousands of dollars.
Yes, this is a good business. You win, the client wins.
