New Acquisitions
We have years of experience working with institutional and private capital buyers to reduce new acquisition tax profiles successfully. The timing of an appeal – either prior to or immediately following a new asset purchase – can critically affect the assessment profile of a property for several tax cycles. We are uniquely sensitive to the issues surrounding new acquisitions, including transactional drivers that distinguish acquisition cost from market value. Our team leverages this understanding and helps our clients attain profitability to amplify the success across a range of asset purchases, including new enterprises, relocations, or expansions.
Bank Owned Property
We have worked with numerous financial institutions to reduce substantially the tax footprint of REO properties and foreclosed assets. By streamlining the aggregate assessment of these holdings, these entities become easier to market. Our aggressive attention to the maintenance of these properties helps our clients acquire a dominant position in this often neglected sub-market.
Changes in the Field
The current assessment climate is undergoing radical change. Despite the rush to embrace data analytics to establish valuation modeling and methods of mass appraisal, it remains critical to maintain a granular focus on the unique facts that set our clients’ properties apart from others. We are your guide through the complex landscape of valuation, and will help deliver the collaborative insight of our internal strategic teams, lawyers, and experienced professionals to ensure you receive fair tax treatment.
