How it works

From check to filing.

The assessor may reach out to negotiate before any hearing.

1

Check — free

Type your address. Our system compares your assessment with recent nearby sales and tells you straight: strong case, maybe, or don't bother.

2

Valuation Analysis — $250–$1,500

If your case is strong, get your Valuation Analysis: a board-ready file with comparable sales, your assessment history, and a plain-English argument. Built for homeowners, not lawyers. Priced by your estimated savings.

3

File

File your appeal by the Board's published deadline (January 15 for Monmouth County). The analysis includes public filing information from the Board's published resources. Full terms, including the refund policy, come in writing before you pay anything.

Our promise

Smarter insights. Fairer outcomes.

We won't take your money for a weak case. Our system flags thousands of homes every year that shouldn't appeal — assessments that are fair, cases too small to be worth the filing fee, evidence too thin to support a reduction.

When the check comes back yellow or red, you get the honest answer anyway: don't pay for an analysis that won't help you.

We don't sell a report the evidence doesn't support. That's the whole business.

Built and run by a person, not a call center.

What Pravo provides is research and evidence: a Valuation Analysis built from public records, which you file with your own appeal. Pravo does not file appeals, represent homeowners, or give legal advice.

The alternative

Our price is fixed — $250 to $1,500 by your estimated yearly savings, stepping down for smaller savings. You know the full cost before you buy.

Contingency law firms charge a share of your first year's savings instead — a percentage of what you save, so the cost is not known up front. A firm also does work we don't: it files your appeal and represents you. We build the analysis; you file it yourself. See the full comparison →

We charge a flat fee per savings tier because the analysis is the product — not a percentage of your refund.

Straight answers

The hard questions.

The ones a careful homeowner should ask — including where the honest answer is "yes, that can happen."

Can my assessment go up?

Yes — honestly, it can. A county board can raise an assessment it finds too low, and your town can file its own appeal of your property (a cross-appeal). Anyone who promises you that can't happen isn't telling you the truth. That risk is exactly why the free check exists: if your assessment looks fair, we say so and sell you nothing — and we only offer an analysis when the market evidence is strong.

Will I have to go to a hearing?

Plan on a short one. The town's assessor may reach out first to discuss a settlement. If you don't settle, you present the analysis at a brief county-board hearing. The analysis organizes the valuation evidence and sources; the County Board decides what weight to give them. You file and speak for yourself — we're the research team behind you, not your representative.

Is it worth the fee?

Do the math on your own numbers. The fee is set by your estimated savings, and we won't offer the analysis unless the likely savings clear it comfortably. In a hypothetical example, a home saving $2,061 a year would pay back its $400 analysis in about ten weeks — and if the board grants the reduction, the NJ Freeze Act generally holds it for the appeal year plus two more, so the reduction is held while the fee was paid once — though the dollars you save still move with each year's tax rate. If your numbers don't clear the fee, the check tells you not to buy.

Terms in writing, before you pay.

Each analysis comes with its full terms — what's included and the refund policy — provided in writing before you pay anything. Nothing is sold on a promise: if it isn't in the written terms, it isn't part of the sale.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

How much does the analysis cost?+

$250–$1,500, one time, set by your estimated yearly savings. We only sell it when our analysis shows likely savings well above the price — that's a business rule, not a judgment call. If your case is marginal, the free check will tell you honestly.

Do I need an attorney?+

You don't need one to file — New Jersey homeowners file their own county-board appeals routinely, and the analysis is designed for exactly that. (We're not a law firm, and this isn't legal advice — complex situations are worth an attorney's eyes.)

What happens after I file?+

The town's assessor may reach out to negotiate a settlement. If you don't settle, you present your analysis at a short hearing.

When is the deadline?+

January 15, 2027 for Monmouth County. Miss it and you wait a full year. Other counties vary — check yours.
