Houston business owners look for ways to reduce overhead. You should look to the ever-increasing cost of commercial property taxes.
Determining accurate market values is the heart of an equitable tax system. Appraisal Districts use "mass appraisal" techniques, meaning the specific details of your property are often ignored.
We assess each property individually. We dig into the income, costs, and market data to maximize your reduction.
For income-producing properties (offices, retail, apartments), value is based on Net Operating Income (NOI). We use your actual P&L statements and market Cap Rates to prove the district is over-valuing your potential income.
This method compares your property to similar ones sold recently in the same area. We adjust for differences in size, age, condition, and location to demonstrate that your assessment is higher than the actual market trend.
For new construction or unique properties, we calculate the cost to rebuild from scratch minus depreciation. This is critical for properties under construction on Jan 1st, ensuring you aren't taxed on a finished building that isn't ready.
Even if the market value is correct, Texas law (Section 42.26) guarantees that you cannot be taxed unequally compared to your neighbors. This is a powerful legal argument we use to reduce values.
Brandon and his team have proven they can perform with any product type we give them,
from industrial and office property to single and multi-family residential.
At a critical time when a property was in lease-up, we were faced with an unreasonable and unjustified assessment.
Brandon’s tenacity and responsiveness resulted in a fair assessment and the largest value change I've seen in my career.
Outstanding!! These guys are pros - they are great at what they do and great to work with.
