Direct Assessment Analysis: An Overview

What are Direct Assessments?

Municipal and county agencies provide a variety of public services within their jurisdictions. Most of these agencies use the property tax bill as a conduit to collect their revenue. These charges are not based on value, but on types of services a parcel receives. These direct assessment charges usually appear in the bottom portion of your tax bill.

As a Property Owner, why should you be concerned about these charges?

While there is no way to escape the cost of public services, you have no obligation to pay more than your share. Yet, that is exactly what can happen if your assessments are incorrect. Because of the methods the various taxing agencies use to collect data, such errors occur. If they are not detected, the resulting overcharges can amount to thousands of dollars.
