The Basic Process Of Filing A Property Tax Appeal In Alabama
The first step in appealing your Alabama property tax assessment is to file a written protest to the county Board of Equalization (BOE) in the county where your property is located.
As a property owner, you are given 30 days to file an appeal after receiving the written notice of valuation. The appeal process includes several critical steps, including the following:
- File a written protest to your county BOE.
- If you’re unsatisfied with the BOE’s decision, appeal to the Alabama Tax Tribunal or the Circuit Court within 30 days.
- Prepare and submit all necessary documentation, adhering to specific guidelines and deadlines.
We are here to assist you throughout the process of preparing and arguing your case for a property tax abatement. We will help you dispute your property taxes with the county and, if that doesn’t work, appeal further. We can explain the pros and cons of using the Tax Tribunal process or appealing to the Circuit Court.
