Waiting Could Be A Costly Mistake

A homeowner purchased their home in May of 2008 for $325,000. At the time of her purchase, the town was assessing her at $430,000. Based on her purchase price, she could have reduced her tax bill by $2275 for the upcoming 2009/2010 period. This savings would have carried forward to future years.
 

Two years later, she applied to us for a tax grievance. The town was now assessing her at $413,000. There were 6 sales in her neighborhood at or above the $413,000.
 
By waiting the 2 years, she no longer had a tax grievance case. The best time to grieve your taxes is when you have a case. Waiting can be a very costly mistake.
