Decision REDUCING REAL ESTATE PROPERTY TAXE IS FREE!

Every homeowner in Sacramento County, Placer County, El Dorado County and Yolo County need to be aware of the latest scam.

I can’ t believe all the people who stoop so low to take advantage of people.

Listen up, this is really going on and just in case you missed this in the news, Sacramento Real Estate Voice is looking out for you.

Everyone wants to lower their property taxes, especially those homeowners who purchased their house in 2004, 2005 and 2006. I have written several articles about how you can fill out forms, call the County Assessor’s office and all this is FREE. Let me repeat, you don’t pay anything to get your taxes reduced.

There is a company out there called Property Tax Adjusters, Inc. who has been sending letters to homeowners asking them to pay $95 to have their taxes reduced.

If you are entitled to have your taxes reduced, the County does this for FREE. Please do not be a victim of this. Apparently, the company doing this is not breaking the law but knows how to play the system.

Be alert and know that there are scammers out there, don’t be a victim. Keep your $95 and buy some gas.

When filing an appeal, the homeowner needs to know a great deal about the current market conditions, the value of his or her property and extensive knowledge of comparable properties. This information serves as evidence that you are being over-taxed. Filing the appeals application on your own can cause your application to be denied and force you to pay higher property taxes than you should. The No.1 reason County Assessors deny appeals applications for re-assessment and summon homeowners to court hearings is because applications not completed by professional real estate appraisers often contain mistakes and inaccurate market information. Do yourself a favor and hire an affordable real estate appraiser that will do the hard work for you.
