We coordinate with you regarding building size / condition to avoid excess taxes.

Some years are good - typically 6 to 7 out of 10 will result in tax reduction for you.
The other 3 to 4 years out of 10 we strike out. Most often due to people issues in the hearing process. Some years we get an easy appraiser at the informal; some years someone who is impossible to settle with.
