To minimize property taxes find out all that you can about assessment and tax relief from you local assessor or tax collector. Start with the website for your local government by searching on the term "[name of city or county] assessor" or "[name of city or county] tax collector." Alternatively if you find the main website for your city or county look for a drop down menu, tab, or navigation bar for departments and choice assessor or tax collector from the list. Also carefully read any notice of assessment that you get in the mail from the assessment or tax collection office. Often these notices will tell you about how you can qualify for homestead exemptions or tax relief programs. The latest assessment notice should also tell you the filing dates for appealing your property assessment if you think it is too high. The local assessor or tax collector will typically explain the process of filing an appeal of the assessment.
