Property Taxes

Property taxes…they can feel like your annual “rent payment” to the government. A payment which you don’t have much power to change—even if you feel your property is overvalued. But, while nearly every business is subject to personal property and real estate taxes, an evaluation of your tax bill by Schenck’s property tax specialists could lead to significant savings.

The Experience to Ease Your Tax Burden
A property can be overvalued for any number of reasons, but successfully appealing its value to your local assessor is both an art and a science. The appeal process is often complicated, and gathering the necessary data to state your case takes considerable time and research.

The property tax team at Schenck Business Solutions provides solutions designed to ease your property tax burden and to minimize future tax expenses. Our services address all aspects of property taxation, from assessment reviews and appeals to assistance with identifying exemptions.


Our hotel group has worked with Schenck on a number of projects in several states. We've been very pleased with the reductions in property taxes Mark Weber has been able to obtain for us--we've saved more than $300,000 over the past three years. He's very skilled at valuing complex properties, and at receiving reductions from municipalities. Overall, it's been a very positive experience working with Mark, and we plan to bring him in on future projects as well.

I wanted to take this opportunity to thank Schenck for helping WS Packaging Group, Inc. obtain several thousands of dollars of tax savings on the real estate we own in several states. You were able to quickly identify several of our manufacturing facilities that were good candidates for a tax reduction. In addition, you were able to work with governmental agencies to motivate them to take action in lowering our taxes. Lastly, you handled all of the paperwork, which allowed me to focus my efforts on other tasks. Thank you for your help.

I have no hesitation in recommending your services to other companies.
