Chamber Seminar Series - Property Tax Appeals

ABOUT THE PROGRAM
Do you wonder what aspects are taken into account to establish your property assessment? Do you know the options and remedies available if you believe your assessment is incorrect? Learn what goes into a property assessment and how to dispute the valuation. A panel of experienced professionals will discuss the steps that you can take to establish a solid argument for your abatement and appeal process.

Topics will include:
• What are the legal rules for filing a tax appeal?
• How do I know if I have a basis to file a tax appeal?
•  What do I need to do to give my tax appeal the best  chance for success?
•  What is happening in the market, and how is my  property likely to be valued?

The panel will present a case study of a successful tax appeal in Worcester, and there will be a question and answer period at the conclusion of the panel.
