Last-minute auction: Cut your property taxes!

by Matt Bramanti · 04/12/2006 12:23 pm

Today’s the last day of bidding in the inaugural LST Auction, so I’d like to offer one last item for bid:

I will fight your taxes.

I don’t mean in the broad, generic, write-letters-to-Austin way. I mean I will get the forms, file your protest, do the research, dig up the data, and personally handle the property tax protest hearing on your home.

During summers while I was in college, I worked as a property tax consultant for the biggest protest firm in Texas. I’ve personally handled more than 2,500 hearings in Harris, Fort Bend, Galveston, Travis, Williamson, Dallas and Tarrant Counties — everything from shotgun shacks to private jets. I’ve successfully cut millions in dollars of value from the tax rolls and saved clients hundreds of thousands of dollars.

There are no guarantees in life, but this item is potentially worth thousands of dollars. Most property tax firms will charge you half of what they save you.

We’ll start the bidding at $50. I’m good at this, folks. Get me back in the fight!

I’ll force the bid up. I bid $100. That’s a really cool idea.

Overcoming my total distate of begging I will say

If Benzion could tap a key he may use the word mensch.

You have made a very generous offer of yourself for LST and it’s readers. To make light of your offer
is to not understand the value of money or the value of a good deed.
