Oh that hurts - Its Perry Mason time! Appealing your 2010 Property Tax - Arizona - Maricopa County
Yes it does hurt. I let the period for my property tax appeal slide by for 2009 and now I am paying the price - literally.  The taxes I am paying based on the assessor valuation is WAY OFF for my properties. But now I can't do anything about it. So I went and researched what I could do if anything about the taxes I will be paying in 2010.  Turns out I can take the matter to court...fun!
Oh, I am going to bring all my properties withme with comp's so I can get them all appealed at the same time...this is very important - BRING YOUR COMPS and two copies of everything when you go file.
So here is the info below;
To appeal your tax assessment for 2010 - the deadline is December 15th, 2009.
 You will have to file suit in small claims court.
It is $140 to do this.  Once you have done this you will receive a court date and then just bring your valuation data to show the judge that the assessed value is too high and he will render a decision.
IT IS TO LATE to do this for prior years - 2008, ... more
