Commercial property is over assessed more often than you would think.
Income property is complex to value, and appraisal districts get it wrong to the high side all the time. On a commercial asset that error is not a rounding difference, it is real money every single year until someone challenges it. We build the case, file the protest, and carry it through the hearing, so you do not have to.
Every kind of income property, from a single building to a portfolio spread across counties.
- Office
- Retail, shopping centers and restaurants
- Industrial, warehouse and distribution
- Multifamily and apartments
- Hotels and hospitality
- Mixed use and special purpose

An inflated value tends to carry forward and climb. Filing once resets the baseline and protects you going forward.
A high value compounds every year.
A commercial value has a lot of moving parts, and there is plenty of room for it to land too high. Once it does, it tends to carry forward, so this year's inflated value becomes next year's starting point and the overpayment repeats.
Most owners never challenge it, and many who try walk in without the evidence a review board will actually act on. Filing once, with a real case, resets the number and protects you going forward.
We build the case the board takes seriously.
A commercial protest is not won by complaining about the bill. It is won by someone who does this for a living, who knows how your district works and comes ready. That is the part most owners cannot do on their own, and it is the part we handle end to end.
We represent you at the informal conference and, if the value is not resolved there, before the review board. You do not sit through any of it.

Your part takes minutes
Send it over
Send us the property and your appraisal notice. For a portfolio, a list of addresses is enough to start.
We build and file
We prepare the case and file before every district deadline. You sign one authorization and that is the last we need from you.
You save
If the value comes down, our fee is one third of the saving. If it does not, you owe nothing. There is no minimum fee.
Your building is not the only thing they appraise.
If you run a business on the property, the district also values your business personal property, the equipment, inventory and furniture, on a separate account. It is over assessed just as often, and we can protest it alongside your building.
Business personal property ›Ask us and we can review and protest both, so nothing is left sitting over assessed.
Commercial protest questions
What does it cost?
One third of the tax we save you. No minimum fee, no filing fee, no per parcel charge. If we don't win a reduction, you pay nothing.
Can you handle a portfolio across counties?
Yes. We track each district's calendar separately and give you one point of contact for all of it. There's no per parcel charge.
Will protesting raise my value?
No. Under Texas Tax Code §41.47(b), the review board can't set your value higher than the amount on your notice as a result of your protest.
Do you handle business personal property?
Yes, if you ask us to. It's a separate account that's frequently over assessed, and we can protest it alongside your building.
