Pay Tax on What Your Property Is Worth, Not More
An inflated valuation costs you every year until someone challenges it. Suder contests county valuations before boards of revision and the Ohio Board of Tax Appeals, and structures the abatements that make development pencil.
Real Estate Taxation
Sean Suder took a lead role on real property tax appeals for the City of Cincinnati, so we have argued valuation from the government's side and know how to attack it from yours. Because we practice land use and real estate every day, we understand what actually drives value: entitlements, leases, condition, and the market. We handle valuation complaints and appeals, and we secure the real property tax abatements available for new construction and rehabilitation.
