There are annual deadlines and once they are missed there is no recourse for recapturing excessive property taxes. CA R&T code 1604 (c) states that the county has to resolve an assessment appeal within 2 years of application filing. RPC averages 10-14 months from start to finish. Larger counties may take longer due to volume.

    If you believe the value of your property has declined for any reason then you should review your tax assessments to make sure they do not exceed the current market value. It is prudent to review your property tax assessments annually.

    Commercial property appeals are our specialty but we also provide services for home owners with assessed values in excess of $1MM.

    A motion can be filed in superior court to over-turn an assessment appeals board’s decision.

    Like your income tax filings, Property Tax Appeals are an annual event. Every tax year is separate and distinct and savings may be available for every year. Once the annual appeal filing deadline passes any tax relief for that year is lost forever. There is no reason to delay.
