Incenter Tax Solutions urges annual property tax reviews to find savings

Incenter Tax Solutions is urging homeowners and commercial property owners to review their property tax assessments every year, saying the process can uncover savings before appeal deadlines pass. The company says free reviews are available in 49 states and that owners pay only if an appeal wins.

Why it matters: - Property tax assessments can drift away from market values, leaving owners overpaying for years. - A successful appeal can lower monthly escrow costs for homeowners and reduce operating expenses for commercial owners. - Lower assessed values can also help sellers by reducing the future tax burden for buyers.

What happened: - Incenter Tax Solutions said homeowners and commercial property owners should check property tax assessments annually. - Michael Sicilia, director of Incenter Tax Solutions, said the goal is to make property taxes accurate and fair. - The company said its attorneys and appraisers serve clients in 49 states. - Incenter Tax Solutions said it completes thousands of free annual property tax assessment reviews. - If a conservative analysis shows a property is overassessed, the company offers to file an appeal. - Owners pay Incenter Tax Solutions only if the appeal is successful.

The details: - Single-family homeowners’ property taxes rose 3% on average from 2024 to 2025, according to ATTOM. - The U.S. office vacancy rate was 17.8% in September 2026, according to the Yardi Matrix Office National Report – October 2026. - The company listed appeal deadlines for multiple California counties, including Los Angeles, San Diego and Orange, on Nov. 30. - Arizona’s deadline is Dec. 15. - Oregon’s deadline is Dec. 31. - Hawaii’s Kauai County deadline is Dec. 31, and Honolulu County’s deadline is Jan. 15. - Burlington, Gloucester and Monmouth counties in New Jersey have a Jan. 15 deadline. - Nevada’s deadline is Jan. 15. - Kent County, Delaware, has a Jan. 29 deadline. - Incenter Tax Solutions said owners should consider a review when monthly escrow payments have been rising. - The company also pointed to the potential to speed a home sale by reducing future buyers’ monthly payments. - One long-time Pennsylvania homeowner found an annual savings opportunity of $7,000 to pass along to the next owners, Sicilia said. - Commercial owners may be able to lower common area maintenance, or CAM, charges and improve occupancy rates. - Incenter Tax Solutions said its success rate for property tax appeals is close to 100%. - The company said it completes another free review each subsequent year after an owner submits a property for review.

Between the lines: - The pitch is timed to appeal windows, which makes annual review more urgent than waiting for a tax bill shock later. - The company is framing property tax appeals as a recurring cost-control tool, not a one-time correction. - The emphasis on escrow, CAM charges and vacancy pressure suggests the message is aimed at both household budgets and commercial real estate cash flow.

What's next: - Property owners can check state appeal deadlines at property tax appeal deadlines. - More information is available at incentertaxsolutions.com or by email at taxorders@incenterls.com. - Incenter Tax Solutions will continue offering annual reviews for submitted properties.

The bottom line: - Incenter Tax Solutions is pushing owners to treat property tax reviews like routine maintenance, because missing appeal deadlines can leave savings on the table.
