We’ve just returned from filing 1,875 real estate tax appeal petitions for the 2010 tax year.

If you are still interested in protesting the assessed value of your property you can file a late petition with the Miami-Dade County Value Adjustment Board, by visiting the 17th Floor of the Government Center downtown or by visiting their website at http://www2.miami-dadeclerk.com/vab. Late petitions will only be accepted and scheduled for a value hearing if you have a legitimate and reasonable reason for not having filed between Aug 1st – Sept 20th.

For all the clients that have previously contacted us, your petitions will be processed by the county shortly and will receive an agenda number for scheduling. Due to the overwhelming amount of cases filed in 2008 and 2009 we do not expect the county to be prepared to hear 2010 cases until at least Jan. 2011.
