Check your deadline first

The window depends on where you live and which notice you got.

Read the date on your own notice or tax statement. If a deadline below doesn’t match it, the notice and the county’s instructions control.

LA County: regular assessments

The regular filing period for real property assessments runs July 2 to November 30 each year, so for 2026 it is July 2 to November 30, 2026. The application fee is $46, non-refundable, and a fee waiver can be requested for hardship. If you file online, the county’s payment vendor adds a $1.49 service fee. LA County AAB

LA County: supplemental, escape or roll change notices

A different clock applies. You file within 60 days of the mailing date printed on the notice or tax bill, or its postmark date, whichever is later. Check your notice before relying on November 30. LA County AAB

Oregon: Property Value Appeals Board

You file your petition with the county clerk after tax statements are mailed in October. It must be postmarked or delivered by December 31. If December 31 falls on a weekend or holiday, the deadline moves to the next business day. Oregon DOR

What you get

Form → Comps → Hearing.

The official form, walked through

LA County’s Assessment Appeal Application (AAB-100, also published as BOE-305-AH) and Oregon’s Property Value Appeals Board Real Property Petition (Form OR-B-RPP, 150-310-063). What each box asks for, where to find the number on your notice, and how to file.

A comps worksheet

Pick recent sales of similar homes near you from free county records and listing sites, and line them up against your assessed or real market value. You choose the comps and the numbers; the worksheet keeps them organized.

A short hearing script

A plain, short outline for presenting your evidence to the board or hearing officer, plus a checklist of what to bring.

Before you pre-order

Straight answers

Will this lower my property tax?

We can’t promise that, and nobody honest can. The board decides. Oregon’s Department of Revenue notes that an appeal may not result in a reduction of tax, because the board’s power to reduce assessed value is limited by law. The pack helps you file on time with organized evidence.

Do you file the appeal for me?

No. You fill in and file the form yourself with the county. We don’t represent you, contact the county for you, or act as a tax agent.

Why a pre-order?

The pack is being finished now. You pay today, and we email it within 2 business days of your order, and by Fri 13 Nov at the latest. If it doesn’t arrive, you get your money back.

Is this legal or tax advice?

No. It is general self-help information and templates. For advice about your own property, talk to a licensed attorney or tax professional, or ask the county assessor’s office.

Does it cover other counties or states?

No. It covers LA County, California, and Oregon counties only. Other places have different forms and deadlines.
