Questions before you decide

What can support a property-tax appeal?

The strongest evidence depends on local rules, but it can include incorrect property facts, comparable properties, condition issues, an appraisal, or proof that you qualify for an exemption. Ask your county assessor which evidence and forms it requires.

When is the deadline to appeal?

Deadlines vary by county and can be short. Read your assessment notice and the county assessor’s instructions as soon as they are available. A service cannot extend a deadline set by the local government.

Where does Ownwell offer property-tax appeals?

Ownwell says it currently offers appeals in Texas, California, Washington, Georgia, Florida, Illinois, New York, Colorado, and Pennsylvania. Service still depends on the county and the property, so enter your address and confirm eligibility before enrolling.

Can I use Ownwell after I filed my own appeal?

Ownwell says it cannot service a property when an appeal for that property tax year has already been filed. Check your appeal status and ask Ownwell about eligibility before you authorize service.
