Southland Tax



	Overview Southland was born in 1987 with the single notion that continues to drive everything it does -- achieve the lowest reasonable property tax assessment allowed by law for each of its client's properties, while reducing the burdens associated with property tax administration. To deliver on this compelling idea, Southland needed superb technology, data and people. They realized that information -- quality and timely information -- was power. Southland's technological solutions have transformed mere data into easy-to-use and powerful-to-present information that proved to be an effective tool. Southland's immense and ever-growing commercial property sale database resides at the core of an impressive and effective array of digital services. Southland's professionals are empowered with cutting-edge applications that facilitate the collection and presentation of comprehensive commercial real estate data. The utilization of this data with the most current appraisal techniques enables Southland's clients to have confidence that their properties are appraised fairly and accurately. The best people. The best data. The best results. The ability to unite all three has made Southland Property Tax Consultants, Inc. the premier provider of property tax solutions to the real estate marketplace. Southland's Mission Southland's primary objective is to cost-effectively achieve reasonable property tax values for each of its client's properties. Southland achieves this by adopting a firm, yet courteous, approach when dealing with assessment authorities. We focus on facts rather than emotional opinions. Sophisticated appraisal theory is paramount when analyzing client properties. Likewise, common sense and effective presentations are a necessity when addressing appraisal districts or appraisal review boards. Along with an extremely thorough and professional approach, these produce an unusually high success rate for Southland's clients. Southland's Approach With a foundation in real estate appraisal theory, Southland utilizes the most current appraisal techniques during the representation process. Sales comparison, income capitalization, and cost approaches to value are augmented with analysis techniques. Among others, these techniques include absorption analysis, cash equivalency adjustments to sale data, and capitalization rate analysis. The utilization of these techniques, combined with Southland's knowledge of the property tax code and tax law changes, has enabled its clients to have confidence that their properties are appraised fairly and accurately.
