Latest case being paying one to appeal a property tax valuation that the shit birds at the assessors office saw fit to raise 50% in one year. 2500 for that anal raping, but he got the bill back to where it should have been.

My dad just went through that and won. They had his valuation at 200% of market for almost 10 years.

You know they guys that raise your taxes and then you can hire them to lower them for you. Murica! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I told them it represented a 50% increase over the previous year, and almost 20% of our gross income on the property. Didn’t matter they still shot me down, so last resort was the lawyer, managed to claw most of the increase back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Years back I did that for my parents and used the house across the street as a ref, twice the size and paying 1/2 the taxes. Don't I get a call from the city asking how I knew the other owners taxes. My parents got their taxes lowered and those neighbors were pissed at me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
