Real Estate Tax Attorney in North Georgia, Metro Atlanta and Beyond
Solutions for Complex Real Estate Tax Concerns in GA
As a property owner, you have an option to appeal your property values. You may be paying more than you should, especially if you own large properties. The real estate tax lawyers in Cumming, GA at Underwood Scoggins, appeal property taxes for both commercial and residential clients in the greater Atlanta area. We understand that taxes are a big expense and will work persistently to reduce what you pay. Each year the Board of Assessors determines a property’s value based on recent local sales and other factors, then mails the property owner an annual assessment notice. If the property owner disagrees with the value assessed, they may appeal their property tax assessment, which must be submitted by the date listed on the assessment notice.
Our attorneys have over 20 years of combined experience in successfully assisting clients with reducing their property taxes for agricultural, commercial, industrial, and residential properties.
Having a deep understanding of local markets, zonings, and property sales, our team offers keen insights into the intricacies of property valuation that has helped us achieve substantial tax savings for our clients.
Don't overpay—let our experienced real estate tax attorneys help you appeal your property assessment. Contact Underwood Scoggins now for a consultation.
