Did you know that if you have Chinese Drywall in your home, you can appeal to the Broward Appraiser's Office to reduce your property taxes for this year?
Here's how to apply for a re-appraisal of your property:
1. Get your Property ID#: You can do this by searching for your own property at: http://www.bcpa.net/RecMenu.asp and make note of the Parcel Number ID which is listed on the top right of the page under ID#
2. Fill out the re-appraisal form. You'll need to pay the $15 fee online with a credit card. Visit: http://bcvab.broward.org/axiaweb2009/newwizard/legal.aspx
- Remember to Check "Real Property Value" under the "I wish to appeal" column.
3. VERY IMPORTANT: When I filled it out, there was no comments field, so I put the following statement in the second address line for the property: "My property has Chinese Drywall. Please adjust taxes. Thank you."
I hope this helps. Please post your comments if this worked (or did not work for you). Thanks!
Ill let you know, just filled out the form.
