Questions, answered honestly.
Straight answers, including the hard ones.
How much does the analysis cost?+
$250–$1,500, one time, set by your estimated yearly savings: $250 if you save $700 to under $800/year, $300 if you save $800 to under $900/year, $350 if you save $900 to under $1,000/year, $400 if you save $1,000 to under $5,000/year, $800 if you save $5,000 to under $15,000/year, $1,500 if you save $15,000/year or more. The check shows your case's tier before you ever pay anything.
What if I save less than $700?+
Then we won't sell you the analysis. We only offer 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 tells you honestly.
How does the free check work?+
We've analyzed every residential parcel in 53 Monmouth County towns — assessments, recent sales, assessment history. Type your address and we look up your home's result: strong case, maybe, or don't bother. Every result shows its basis — the verdict, what drove it, and the assessment and sales data behind it. The analysis lays out the full reasoning.
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, with public filing information. (We're not a law firm, and this isn't legal advice. Complex situations may warrant an attorney.)
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.
What if I lose at the hearing?+
The full analysis terms, including the refund policy, are provided in writing before you pay anything — nothing is sold without them.
When is the deadline?+
January 15, 2027 for Monmouth County. Miss it and you wait a full year. Deadlines vary by county — if you're not in Monmouth, check your county board's calendar.
How much can I save?+
It depends on your assessment and your home's market value. In our October 2026 screen of all 216,632 Monmouth County parcels, flagged cases had median estimated savings of about $2,400/year — a preliminary estimate; our tax-rate reconciliation runs before any mailing. If the board grants a reduction, the NJ Freeze Act generally holds the lower assessment for the appeal year plus the next two — but the dollars you save still move with each year's tax rate, and a later reassessment or revaluation can change the picture after that. The free check shows your home's estimated range — a range, never a promise: settlements are negotiations, and your final number depends on the outcome.
Will the town retaliate or raise my assessment?+
Filing an appeal is a normal part of the process — the county board exists to hear them. Filing doesn't change what your home is worth: market value is what buyers would pay, and it doesn't move because you filed. The assessed value is different, and be clear-eyed about it: the board can raise an assessment it finds too low, and your town can file its own appeal of your property (a cross-appeal). That risk is real — and it's exactly why the free check matters: when your assessment looks fair, we offer no analysis, because there is no case to build. Assessments also change over time for unrelated reasons, like improvements or a town-wide revaluation — that happens whether or not you appeal.
What if my check comes back yellow or red?+
Yellow means we found something worth checking, but a person needs to verify it before we can offer an analysis — leave your info and we'll review it personally, free. Red means your assessment looks fair — we'd rather tell you that than sell you something. Either way, the check cost you nothing.
Do you sell my information?+
Never. We don't sell or rent your information, and we share it only with the services we need to operate — for example, the company that sends our email replies — and only what they need to do their job. Ask us to delete your information. We'll delete what we can, subject to records we must retain to fulfill an order or meet legal obligations.
Still curious? Ask us anything — a human replies.
