Center City Philadelphia – Philly.com recently wrote a piece that included 2 steps to lower your Philadelphia Real Estate Taxes. This got me thinking about Philadelphia Real Estate Taxes in general and if you believe your Philadelphia Real Estate Taxes are too high, and everyone does, here are two steps you can before filing your appeal.
Step 1: Check the accuracy of your property assessment. Make sure that all features (age, square footage, lot size, beds, baths, parking) are accurately reflected and recorded.
Step 2: Examine properties in your neighborhood with comparable features and comparing their assessments to your own. If there is an obvious discrepancy that can help with your appeal.
Finally, the article recommends that you increase your chance of reducing your Philadelphia Real Estate Taxes by asking local Realtor to conduct a comparative market analysis or consider paying for a property appraisal.
