Property Tax Consulting in Texas

At the Hegwood Group our consultants provide our clients with a full range of comprehensive property tax solutions. Whether the tax issue is related to business personal property or commercial real estate, our experts will utilize the best strategy to deal with your particular ad valorem tax problem.

The following is a partial list of our property tax related services.

Initial Property Tax Consultation and Evaluation

Our consultants deal with every property tax problem from its own perspective to achieve the best results. For that purpose, we arrange an initial property tax consultation and evaluation meeting with our clients to get a detailed view of the exact problem.

Property Value Analysis and Determination

Real estate and business personal property values are comprised of many factors, some of which are intrinsic to the property itself. Our consultants will analyze all factors contributing to the property's value, some of which would include the income produced by the property, the property's physical condition, and current market conditions. Our detailed analysis will result in a more accurate value estimate, and hence a fair and equitable property tax assessment.

Filing of Property Assessment Appeals and Returns

Our property tax experts specialize in appealing property tax assessments and the filing of property tax returns. We handle all aspects of the appeals process as well as the filing of all yearly property tax forms and returns. We handle these time consuming tasks for our clients so that they can concentrate on what they do best.

Value Negotiation with County Assessors

As part of the appeals process, our property tax consultants will meet with the county assessor's office to discuss and possibly negotiate a lower assessment for your property. At the Hegwood Group, all our consultants are former county appraisers and have extensive experience in value negotiations from both sides of the table.

Preparation and Attendance before the Property Tax Appeals Board

If a value negotiation can not be achieved, our consultants will attend any hearing scheduled before the county appraisal review board to argue your case. Our consultants have extensive experience and knowledge of the formal hearing process and know the keys to getting an assessment reduced.

Assistance with Property Tax Litigation

If some instances, value negotiations and appraisal review board hearings are not enough. In these cases, property tax litigation may be the answer. At the Hegwood Group, we can assist our clients with any type of property tax litigation. Our consultants will work with the attorney as an expert and will attend any settlement conferences with the assessor's office.
