The residential real estate appraisal is a market-based conclusion of value for homeowners or potential buyers. Obtaining the most supportable and accurate conclusion of value is extremely important, especially during these times, where each market varies. The benefit of using a Certified Residential Appraiser is to determine the most realistic determination of a property’s value. The valuation service provided is typically more accurate than those obtained, for example, via CMA's done by realtors, AVM's utilized by lenders, and web sites that claim they can provide a homeowner with an accurate value, which is typically not accurate. Without inspection of the property by a licensed experienced local certified real estate appraiser, a supportable valuation of your property might not be determined.

Should you file an assessment appeal?

The assessed value of your real estate should equal what the property would easily sell for (appraised value). If the assessed value exceeds what the property would easily sell for you should file an appeal. If the property is affected by a diminution in value caused by declining prices and market conditions, detrimental conditions i.e. cracked slab, landslide, construction defects, condemnation, environmental problems, or other causes you should file an appeal. Property tax appeals can be filed on any real estate including a home, vacant land, apartment building, commercial, industrial, or special use property. Before you file for a real property tax assessment appeal you should get an appraisal prepared by an appraiser experienced in appraisals for assessment appeal in Indiana.

Did you know?

1. The property assessment appeals board operates under the presumption that the County Assessor is correct in their assessment of your property. In addition, many times the board of appeals is made up of at least one former or active real estate appraiser or Real estate broker.

2. You must provide substantial evidence (an appraisal) to support your real property assessment appeal claim. As an appraisal expert, we are qualified to act as your designated expert witness or represent you at the hearing and provide you with a well researched and documented appraisal of your property. In addition, we are qualified to question the appraisal methodology used by the Assessor in determining the assessed value of your property.

3. An experienced appraiser can provide well documented "evidence" and have the representation you need to be able to refute inaccurate technical valuation claims that may be made by the assessor. An appraisal by an experienced expert appraiser can provide the documented "evidence" you need in challenging your property tax assessment. The ability to cross-exam the County Appraiser by a real estate appraisal expert can oftentimes make the difference in whether your tax assessment appeal is successful or not.

4. Again, the first step in any property tax assessment appeal is to have a reappraisal of your real estate by an expert to provide documented evidence of your property value.
