DK REAL ESTATE APPRAISAL INC.
Certified Residential Real Estate Appraiser
Appraisals for Property Tax Appeal
TAX APPEALS
New Jersey is recognized as one of the highest taxed states in the country.
DK Real Estate Appraisal can provide a property appraisal to determine if your property qualifies for an appeal. An appraisal is the most credible evidence of your property value. Determining your properties' value requires understanding the local market based on comparable sales data and public records.
​
You can do this yourself. As a homeowner, you have the legal right to appeal your property taxes without the use of an attorney or appraiser. The necessary forms can be found at http://www.state.nj.us/treasury/taxation/. Additional information required will be reviewing the assessor’s property record card for accuracy, measuring your gross living area, analyzing comparable sales data, determining useable sales for an appeal and providing a true market value as of October 1st of the current Tax Year.

​
Sound a little daunting and complex ?
​
If you don’t get these things right, chances are your appeal may be denied.
Don’t take that chance, hire a professional with experience.
​
Please feel free to contact me to discuss your property; your current assessments, your towns ratios and ultimately what the town thinks your home is currently worth > this is called the Equalized Value. We’ll do a quick review, gathering some other data about your home and then do research to see if there is supportable evidence to appeal your taxes. In most cases, we will be able to determine if your tax assessments are within the acceptable range to proceed with an appeal.
