Property Laws Attorney in Minneapolis and Saint Paul

One of the oldest practices of law is in the area of property, both real and personal. Whether you own, lease, or are looking to buy property, having a strong advocate in your corner can help you to determine how property law in Minnesota affects your rights and obligations. Especially when considering whether to buy or sell your property, an evaluation of how property taxes have been or will be assessed may determine the true value of a piece of property.

When purchasing real property in Minneapolis or St. Paul, your attorney will evaluate the assessed value of the property to help you determine whether the tax amount is fair when compared to the price you are willing to pay for the property. Property tax law firms should consider whether there are any restrictions on the property either through contract or government regulation, or whether the location or your personal information provides for additional tax caps or restrictions on the taxability of the property.

When a property tax attorney reviews the assessed value of a piece of property, he or she will consider each of the possible valuation models. At Robert Hill & Associates, we also consider the actual make-up of the property. Minnesota law only allows property to be taxed on the basis of the land and building, along with certain fixtures attached to the property. We consider whether some exempt fixtures were incorrectly included, resulting in an improper valuation.

When approaching Minnesota property tax laws, the experience of attorney Robert Hill plays a large part in his advice to his clients. Knowing that the property tax laws prohibit certain fixtures and assets from being included in a valuation can significantly affect the overall tax burden you face on a piece of property.
