Last week I took an enlightening continuing education course on protesting the Travis/Williamson County tax appraisals. Wow. I've helped clients in the past with their protests but even I was shocked by some of the things that I learned! The information couldn't have come from a better source, either - - - a former member of the Appraisal Review Board, who shared the methodologies (as well as idiosyncrasies) of the central appraisal districts. While no one can guarantee a protest will be effective since you're are almost literally "fighting City Hall" when attempting this, the instructor left us feeling much more prepared to help our clients reduce their property tax bills.
When I help clients buy a home, I help advise them through the process and prepare the protest calculations for them. That's just another way I give them service after the sale. My satisfied clients are my best advertisement and their referrals have helped me build my business in a way that's much more effective than any billboard or television ad could be!
What did your last agent do for you after the deal was closed?
