Property Tax Assessment: Have you received a letter from a broker explaining you may be eligible for a reduced property tax and they will do all the work, than asking you to sign a Fee Agreement?

I wanted to bring to your attention that it is not necessary for you to be charged to do this. It can simply be done via the Orange County Property Tax Assessor office free and it is very simple.

All you need to do is complete a simple form, possibly attend a hearing and provide comparables. Which of course, I will provide for you free of charge! There is a deadline to file by Sept. 15th and if you bought your home since 2005 you do have a good chance of reducing your property taxes. Note the county has reduced many properties already but it may be worth confirming your value to ensure they are at the same level.

In today’s environment every penny counts. Please do not hesitate to contact me directly with any questions.

Homes Wanted: I have several buyers looking for homes and have seen everything fitting their needs currently on the market but to no avail. They are not interested in buying a short sale property (which is the primary number of properties on the market), so if you are considering selling your home, please contact me ASAP.


Keeping you informed!
