Commercial Real Estate Property Tax Review

The pandemic has caused significant declines in many industries and property types. In Texas, high property tax rates make ad valorem tax a costly liability for commercial property owners and tenants.

To reduce property tax expenses, it’s essential to hire an experienced firm that understands Texas tax appraisal methodologies and the appeal process. Our real estate valuation methods include a variety of approaches and considerations to determine the accurate property value. We use the Market Approach, analyzing market conditions and sales of comparable properties; the Income Approach, focusing on the property’s income potential; and the Cost Approach, assessing construction type, costs and market value of all new improvements.

Additionally, we consider factors such as equitability, the building’s age and type, needed improvements, vacancy rates, all forms of depreciation or obsolescence and the highest and best use of the property. These combined methods ensure a thorough and fair valuation of real estate.

Why should I hire a firm for a Texas property tax protest?

Hiring a firm like PVS for commercial real estate or business personal property tax appeals in Texas can significantly reduce your taxable value and streamline the appeal process. It’s particularly beneficial given the complexities of property valuation and the legal nuances involved.

Our experienced team provides expertise in the following areas:

PVS ensures that the appraised value of your commercial real estate truly reflects open market conditions by adeptly applying capitalization rates and analyzing rental income. For business personal property, we precisely evaluate depreciated values, ensuring fair tax treatment by the county appraisal district.

PVS negotiates effectively with local government tax offices to secure the lowest possible taxable value for your properties, potentially lowering your overall property tax burden.

Leveraging extensive data on similar properties within your market area, we challenge the appraisal district’s valuations, aiming to align your property’s market value with actual market conditions, thus ensuring equitable assessments.

Specialized knowledge in managing special appraisal provisions for commercial properties can lead to significant property tax savings, especially for properties affected by unique zoning laws or large-scale developments.

We employ statistical testing to identify and correct overvaluations, ensuring your commercial portfolio is assessed accurately against the broader market.

We handle all aspects of compliance, from filing the public notice of the capitalization rate to meeting the stringent requirements set by the tax assessor, thus relieving you of complex administrative burdens.

Regular reviews and challenges to property tax assessments help keep financial planning on track, reduce unexpected property tax hikes and aid in more predictable fiscal management.
