What changed

The county-expert era is over.

01

Every county is online

Assessor rolls, sales, board decisions and filing portals are public and digital in most of the country.

02

One model reads all of it

Every parcel valued against its assessment in days, not one market at a time.

03

Experts, nationwide

Reserve Tax Group files and argues in every state, and many boards now hear appeals remotely.

Why the model wins

It learns from what the county already accepted.

Every board decision is training data: the comps the county chose, the evidence it accepted and the reduction it granted. The model is retrained on all of it, so your next appeal leads with arguments that already won in that county.

Comparison FAQ

What owners ask before switching.

No. Assessor records, sales, board decisions and filing portals are online in most counties, and many boards hear appeals remotely. Reserve values every parcel from that data in one model, and licensed Reserve Tax Group professionals file and argue appeals nationwide.
Most work on contingency, typically 25% to 35% of the savings, sometimes for more than one year, with hourly or flat fees for hearings and appraisals. Reserve charges 18% of the savings, only when an appeal wins.
Every board decision is recorded with the comparables the county relied on, the evidence it accepted and the reduction it granted. The model is retrained on those outcomes by county and property type, so the next appeal leads with what already worked in that jurisdiction.
Yes. We check board dockets for open appeals under the current firm, leave those alone, and file the rest. That avoids duplicate filings on the same parcel.
For one very large asset headed to a contested hearing or litigation, a firm with in-house appraisers and attorneys may have the deeper bench for that single case. Reserve engages appraisers and counsel where a parcel needs them.
