How to Legally Reduce Your Property Taxes by Paul R. Mumford,Paul Roland Pdf
The complete manual on successfully challenging tax assessments. 28,400 plus words plus 72 pages of sample forms, State Tax Rules, complete tax calendar, filing dates & typical notices. Although the author includes numerous citations & references, he studiously avoids "legalese" & describes in plain, easy-to-read language: where Assessors' errors occur; why they happen; what they are; the little known frequency of them; & how to quickly, easily & informally proceed to have erroneous valuations corrected. The manual outlines the basic duties of the Assessor's office; explains how to recognize excessive mechanical/clerical tax assessments; describes illegal Assessor errors which may result in interest owed the taxpayer; introduces fundamental appraisal concepts & how to apply them to the taxpayer's property; tells where & what to look for in the Assessor's records; & describes how to gather comparable information in preparation for meetings with the Assessor. Checklists & step-by-step instructions help determine if an adjustment is warranted; how & the best time to approach the Assessor; negotiating techniques; appeal deadlines; & how to file the necessary procedural forms for informal reviews & formal hearings.
