Frequently Asked Questions
What does Ownwell do?
Ownwell specializes in property tax reduction for homeowners, small businesses, and real estate investors. To help save you money, Ownwell will evaluate your current appraised value and perform a comparative market analysis. We'll then prepare and file evidence on your behalf and attend any hearings with your tax assessor to get a reduction.
After completing your assessment appeal, we'll continue to monitor your property's future assessments and will appeal again if your taxes increase.
Are there specific costs and fee structures?
Ownwell charges 35% of the first-year savings plus a $20 fee if we secure a three-year assessment freeze. Due to Georgia's 85/15 rule, your first-year bill may show minimal savings while the county retains most reductions. However, you'll receive full savings in years 2 and 3 of the freeze. We only charge our percentage on actual Year 1 savings received, not the total reduction amount. Learn more about the 85/15 rule here.
What is Ownwell’s success rate?
Our success rate varies across geographies. We typically achieve successful reductions in 86% of our cases, with those reductions leading to an average savings of $1,102 on their property tax bills since joining Ownwell.
