The tax on your equipment is easy to overpay.
A business is taxed on more than its building. The equipment, inventory and furniture it runs on are appraised on a separate account, and that value lands too high all the time. We review it and, if you ask us to, protest it right alongside your real estate.
- Equipment and machinery
- Inventory and supplies
- Furniture and fixtures
- Computers and technology
- Tools and shop assets
Appraised on a separate account from your building, and taxed on top of it.
Each is appraised on its own, and each can be protested. Ask us and we can handle both.
Renditions rarely go your way on their own.
Each year the appraisal district expects a rendition of your business assets, and it sets a value from what it has on file. Depreciation, assets you no longer own, and equipment worth far less than its sticker price all get missed, and the value comes back too high.
Left alone, that number carries forward and you keep paying on it. A protest resets it to what your assets are actually worth.
We handle the account for you
We review the account
Send us the notice and we look at what the district has valued your assets at.
We protest it
If there's a case, we file and argue the value down, on its own or alongside your building.
You save
Our fee is one third of the tax we save you. If we don't win, you owe nothing.
We can protest both at once.
If you own the commercial property your business sits on, we can take on the real estate and the business personal property together, so nothing is left over assessed.

What is business personal property?
The equipment, inventory, furniture and machinery your business owns. In Texas it's appraised and taxed on a separate account from the building.
Who has to deal with it?
Most businesses with equipment or inventory. The district expects a yearly rendition, and the value often comes back too high.
Can you handle it with my building?
Yes, if you ask us to. We can protest the BPP account and the real property together.
What does it cost?
One third of what we save you. No minimum, and nothing if we don't win.
