FAQ's for Colorado

1. How do I begin? + Show Answer

3. Should I appeal my property tax every year? + Show Answer

   Yes! Various un-biased, "third party" sources recommend that you check your property valuation each year. These include Consumer's Reports, USA Today, The Wall Street Journal, Money Magazine and others. Even if your property value decreased or didn't change, we strongly recommend you ask TaxDetective to lower your property tax. Since 1997, our experience has shown that owners who consistently ask us each year to file an appeal end up with lower property taxes.

4. Are there up-front fees? + Show Answer

   Generally no. Tax Detective's business is lowering property taxes.

5. How accurate is the Assessor's valuation of my property? + Show Answer

   It depends. In Colorado, the Assessor is responsible for appraising all real properties on alternate years. A Mass Appraisal System is used and valuations are set according to approximate market value. Sales of similar properties are used to determine market values. Given the allowable time and resource constraints, this is a challenge. In times of uncertainty and changing market values it is very difficult.

6. Are there filing deadlines? + Show Answer

   Yes. See Colorado Deadline for further information.

7. Are there late fees? + Show Answer

   A late fee may be charged if all the requested materials are not sent to TaxDetective by the deadline.

8. May I appeal non-residential properties? + Show Answer

   Yes! We welcome all types of properties.

9. May I appeal more than one property? + Show Answer

   Yes! It is best that you ask us to analyze the valuations of all the properties you own. You may use one set of forms for all properties providing they are all in Arizona. For properties in other states, return to the Home page and chose another state.

10. May I appeal properties in other states? + Show Answer

    Yes! TaxDetective works in other states. Please return to the Home Page and choose another state.

11. How do I pay TaxDetective? + Show Answer

    You may pay by credit card or check. Please visit Pay Bill to pay by credit card or Contact TaxDetective for our mailing address.

12. When do I pay TaxDetective? + Show Answer

    You pay us after we are successful in lowering your property tax. When your property taxes are known for the Tax Year that was appealed, we will send you an invoice along with supporting documents. You can expect to receive these in the Winter season following the year in which your appeal is filed. Please see About Colorado.
