The appeal process

Deadlines, paperwork, and billing explained

Timeline

Georgia law provides exactly 45 calendar days

The clock starts on the date printed on your county assessment notice. Submitting your appeal within this window preserves your right to challenge the valuation before the Board of Equalization.

Protection

An appeal cannot raise your property valuation

During the standard Board of Equalization review, filing an appeal protects your baseline. The county cannot increase your assessed value simply because you requested a review of the numbers.

Billing

You pay zero dollars if the valuation remains unchanged

We operate strictly on a pay-only-on-success model. If the county maintains your original assessment without a reduction, you owe us nothing for our comparable sales analysis and filing work.

Legal protection

Every homeowner has a statutory right to a fair and uniform valuation, ensuring local tax digests reflect true market conditions rather than arbitrary increases.
