An AI-native property tax appeal firm
We get commercial property taxes reduced, and argue the case ourselves.
Reserve Tax Group files and argues property tax appeals for commercial and multifamily owners. The firm was built on its own valuation software, so every parcel in a portfolio gets reviewed, not a sample, and the fee is 18% of the savings, only when we win, instead of the usual 25 to 35%.
- Valuation and evidence built by our team
- Filed, negotiated, and argued by counsel
- Represented through Board of Review, VAB, and ARB

The problem
Most assessments go unchallenged. Not because they are right.
Checking every parcel by hand costs more than a consultant can bill for it. So the traditional firm samples the trophy assets, charges 25 to 35% of whatever it saves, and the rest of the portfolio pays what the county says. Property tax is usually the largest operating expense on the P&L, and it is the one line almost nobody audits.
We built the firm the other way around. The valuation model runs first, on every parcel, every cycle. Our people spend their time on the ones it flags: building the income evidence, sitting with the Property Appraiser, and taking the rest to the board.

What we do
The software finds where you are over-assessed, and our counsel takes it to the board.
Most firms split this between a consultant and an outside attorney. Here the model, the evidence, and the hearing are one engagement.
Scan & value every parcel
Reserve Intelligence, the valuation engine we built and run the firm on, estimates market value for each parcel across the income, sales, and cost approaches and flags where the assessment exceeds it.
File & represent
Our professionals build the evidence package, collect the owner authorization, file the petition, and represent you through informal review and the Board of Review, VAB, or ARB hearing.
Report & defend
Institutional documentation on demand: pre-acquisition diligence, annual forecasts, reserve analyses, and uniformity studies, each reviewed and signed by our team.
A remodel can push an assessment close to what you spent, even though much of that spend is equipment, signage and brand standards that are not taxable real estate. Our development tax projection models the post-remodel value and sets up the appeal before the new number lands. Signed by the firm, delivered in 48 hours.

How an appeal moves through our office.
Assess
We load your parcel list and pull the assessment roll, sales, and income data for each property directly from the county.
Flag
The model values every parcel and flags the ones where the gap to the assessment is large enough, and the evidence strong enough, to file.
File
We prepare the petition (a DR-486 in Florida, the protest form in Texas), collect the owner’s authorization, and file before the county window closes.
Defend
Informal review with the Property Appraiser first; most of our 2026 reductions settled there. What does not settle goes to the board. The reduced value carries into future years.
Why the model wins
Machine learning trained on real reductions.
Most valuation models learn from sales. Ours also learns from outcomes. Every appeal the firm files is recorded with what the board decided, which evidence moved it, and by how much.
The model is retrained on those results, so the next scan flags what each county actually reduces, not just what looks high. A traditional firm’s experience lives with its consultants. Ours compounds with every filing.

Results · 2026 season
The model flags it. The county agrees.
More than 250 properties are under appeal this season, and most boards rule over the coming months. These are the first decisions back: the model flagged each parcel, the firm built the income evidence, and the county accepted the reduction at informal review, before any hearing. Owner names and parcel identifiers are withheld.
| Preliminary | $41,770,000 |
| Settled | $39,000,000 |
Large-format retail. Income analysis submitted by the firm; the Property Appraiser found the data supported a reduction to the building value.
| Preliminary | $21,000,000 |
| Settled | $19,000,000 |
Large-format retail. Building value revised at informal review to stay consistent with the prior year. No hearing required.
| 2025 value | $2,027,000 |
| 2026 value | $1,532,400 |
Single commercial property. Nearly a quarter of the market value taken off the roll, carried into every future year the owner holds the asset.
Tax savings at each county’s 2026 millage; the lower assessment carries into future years.
How we compare
What changes when the firm runs on its own software.
Owners usually compare us to the traditional consulting firms. The difference is not the appeal itself. It is that the valuation work that a traditional firm bills by the week is done by our model before anyone is assigned to the file, so more parcels get appealed, the fee is lower, and every filing is visible to you from the day it goes in.
| The traditional model | Reserve Tax Group | |
|---|---|---|
| Valuation model | Built parcel by parcel each season; lessons live with individual consultants | Trained on sales and on real appeal outcomes, retrained after every decision |
| Portfolio valuation | Weeks, a few parcels sampled by hand | Hours, every parcel scanned by AI |
| Evidence & filing | Manual, deadline-driven, easy to miss | AI-assembled, filed ahead of every deadline |
| Institutional reports | Custom hourly engagements, billed by the week | Flat fee per report, delivered within 48 hours |
| Appeal tracking | Email updates, opaque status | Live dashboard: filed, tracked, won |
| Pricing | 25–35% contingency, plus hourly fees | 18% of the savings, no hourly fees |
