KURZ GROUP, INC.

BUSINESS PERSONAL PROPERTY

Kurz Group takes the following steps to insure minimization of our client's tax liabilities for business personal property:

• Analyze and arrive at a taxable value of our client's property through the proper classification of assets, taking into consideration all abatements, exemptions and accelerated depreciation available
  *** This analysis is done during the reporting cycle, allowing us to determine any valuations that should be protested or appealed upon receipt of assessment notices.
• At our client's request, we prepare and file all renditions, abatement applications, Freeport applications, and other exemption applications
• When assessments are determined to be excessive, we file all appropriate protest forms, petitions, or applications required to protest or appeal the taxable value
• We represent our clients and resolve all their valuation disputes either through an informal settlement conference or Review Board Hearing
• When litigation is necessary, we work closely with our client's counsel throughout the process of reaching a final settlement or resolution
