Property Tax Appeal Researcher

Property tax assessments are frequently inaccurate — studies show 30–60% of U.S. properties are over-assessed. But appealing requires research most owners don't have time for: finding comparable sales (comps), documenting assessment discrepancies, and writing a formal appeal letter. This workflow automates the entire research phase: enter the property address and it pulls the current assessed value from the county assessor API, searches the MLS and public records for 5–8 comparable sales within the past 12 months, calculates the implied market value from comps, identifies the assessment discrepancy percentage, pulls the property's recent sale history, and generates a complete appeal package — a cover letter, comp table, and supporting evidence formatted as a PDF. The appeal package is emailed to the property owner and filed in Google Drive.

• Complete appeal package in 15 minutes vs. 6–10 hours of manual research
• Data-driven comp analysis is more persuasive than anecdotal appeals
• Identifies properties with the highest appeal success probability
• Batch processing — run 50 properties at once for portfolio investors
• Average successful appeal saves $800–$3,000/year in property taxes
