After heated competition, PropTax Madness has come to a conclusion, at least our virtual tournament. We started with a field of 16 teams competing for the coveted “most maddening thing about property taxes”. We now have a champion. Sorry, we can’t bring the reality of these maddening issues to an actual conclusion. Without them, what fun would we have! But I digress.
You have spoken, the votes have been counted, and the winner of 2013 PropTax Madness is…faxing! It makes sense – why would you easily send an email with your attachment when you could just rewind back to 1995 and fax the document instead? Why do tax jurisdictions insist on keeping the faxing business alive?
Thanks for playing along, everyone! What do you think about the winning team? To catch up on the PropTax Madness tournament, check out our previous posts.

How many of you own or lease real estate? Many of you probably own a house. Some of you may even own commercial or industrial property. Or perhaps the company you work for owns or leases property. Either way, the costs related to owning that property is high – especially the real estate taxes! It’s important to ensure that you are only paying your fair share in property tax. But do you know the steps necessary to make sure you are only paying your fair share? And, if you know the steps, do you have the time to go through the process?
This is where we can be of service. At Advantax, we specialize in making sure that commercial and industrial property is being assessed correctly and resulting in the appropriate amount of property taxes. This means conducting real property assessment reviews, performing property valuation analysis, and representing you throughout the appeal and value negotiation process. We save customers time and money. It’s as if we’re in the “Office Next Door”.
