TAX ASSESSMENT/REAL ESTATE 

The payment of taxes, while necessary, is not always straightforward.  Especially, when you add the complexities of valuing real estate for the purpose of taxation.  Whether a residence or a complex commercial enterprise, Pennsylvania legal principles require that like properties are taxed similarly and only pay their “fair share.”  While taxing authorities work diligently to tax properties appropriately and determine the fair market value of property, the law allows for appeals to be taken to ensure that the values placed on properties by the taxing authorities are accurate given current market conditions.
