Frequently asked

Is there a cheaper alternative to Ownwell?

Yes. Ownwell charges 25–35% of your savings every year. TaxAppealAgent charges a flat $29 for a complete appeal packet (with a $4.99 check credited toward it), so you keep 100% of what you save. On a $2,000 reduction you pay about $34 instead of $500–$700.

Why does Ownwell cost so much?

Ownwell’s contingency fee repeats on your savings. A one-time flat fee like TaxAppealAgent’s costs the same whether the software finds $200 or $2,000 in savings, so you keep the difference.

Does TaxAppealAgent cover my state?

TaxAppealAgent works in all 50 US states (with state-specific statute citations) plus the UK for Council Tax band challenges and SDLT refunds. Ownwell covers 9 US states.
