Why protest? Why not use other property tax firms?
Some firms may value county appraiser relationships over your interests.
Others may use generic arguments for a neighborhood (not a house). Without your home details, they can’t adjust for actual differences.
No one can guarantee wins, but we will work hard for YOU. We help you combine strong homeowner arguments with a better-than-agent level quality presentation.

Why EZPropTax?
- Regain your life: We do it for you ($250) or you can DIY ($49) and have a great property tax protest in 1-3 hours, not the usual 10-20!
- Improve your case’s details, arguments, & style: Potentially boost win rate and savings
- Get all the comps in two easy charts for the ARB to understand quickly
How it works:
Step 1: Select the $250 package or $49 DIY software. The $250 package means you just fill out a form and we do the rest – skip everything after Step 2!
Step 2: Take pictures of your house ASAP (January 1 is best). At least 1-2 good photos/room, and pictures of the entire property. Have it time-stamped.
Step 3: Sign up to protest (it’s free) on your county website or mail your protest in by May 15; request the informal hearing with evidence with your county website where needed.
Step 4: After you buy the $49 software, open the “Your EZPropTax order has been received!” email, click the Google Form link at the bottom, fill in the data, and submit.
Step 5: Email 2 will be sent. Open the 2nd Google Form link (30min – 2hrs) and submit.
Step 6: Email 3 will contain a generated PDF with property descriptions, comparison charts, simple market valuations, and comparable valuations. Review it for errors, then attach pictures of all properties. Submit as per your county’s submission procedures. Now you’re ready for the ARB formal hearing!
If you don’t get the generated PDF email within a few minutes, it is likely that some data was not entered correctly, so you must redo the form. Follow the instructions and check carefully so you don’t have to resubmit Part 2 – keep the Google Form edit window open!
How You Win
Our strategy uses 3 separate “ways to win”. If you convince the ARB of any method, you automatically win. Below are these 3 strategies.
Method 1: The simple market valuation is easy to understand. It is based on last year’s assessment, adjusted for the market change over the last year. Hard to argue against – IF you have the proof of where the market is.
Method 2: Take 3 comparable houses from the county’s valuation, adjusted to reality, and average them. This method is more or less what the county does, but more detailed. Because you are using their comparable properties, it’s hard for them to argue against this.
Method 3: If all else fails, the 3 non-comparables are used to break down the county analysis by showing how they are comparing apples to oranges. For example, usually houses that sell are newly built or remodeled houses, and the county tries to use these to raise the value of older houses. Obviously, this is not correct. If you are successful here, the board may accept your evidence (depending on state). This is the most critical method – if you disprove their comps, they have no case – so you win by default!
