<p>Yeah!!! Congrats.</p>
<p>I have a cousin (an ex-prosecuting attorney), who is now a SAHM with 4 kids, making a nice living as an attorney who challenges (and wins) property taxes in PA, so yes, it can be done. She has a “busy season” and works at home, after the kids are in bed, until some ungodly hour (2 or 3 am). Ask around (neighbors and such) for referrals.</p>
<p>I’d love to change mine, but unfortunately as far as I can tell it’s too low. A friend of mine who does this for a living said it was low years ago. Our town hasn’t reassessed since the 1950s so assessments are totally wacky and challenging them is big business.</p>
<p>We have businesses that do this for a percentage of the first year’s tax savings (high % - I think 40%) but since it resets your base value I think it’s well worth it to hire them every 3-4 years.</p>
