PROPERTY TAX APPEALS
Taxpayers appealing to the State Board of Equalization may represent themselves, be represented by a member of the taxpayer’s immediate family, or be assisted by anyone they choose, although the degree of assistance may be regulated by the administrative judge or the rules of appeal. Taxpayers who send another on their behalf are deemed to have designated that person as their agent, but only the following persons may act as an agent in a property tax appeal before the State Board of Equalization:
1. Attorneys,
2. Regular officers, directors, or employees of a taxpayer that is a corporation or other artificial entity,
3. Certified public accountants, if the only issue is the valuation of tangible personal property, or
4. Agents who have pre-qualified and registered with the State Board of Equalization.
The State of Tennessee Comptroller of the Treasury has approved Eric as a TN Registered Agent. This allows him to appear before the TN State Board of Equalization as an owner’s property tax representative.
