Property tax, under control.

Regilon shows which commercial properties may be overassessed, what proof is missing, when a reviewed packet is worth buying, and how savings become verified.

Illustrative — example record types, not customer data.

Every county has its own deadline — and next year can reset the work.

Regilon monitors assessment changes, appeal windows, and savings opportunities across the portfolio so you do not discover the issue after it is too late — and it keeps watching after the first result.

01

Do I have a real problem?

  • Assessment jump

    Your taxable value increased faster than similar properties.

  • Equity gap

    Comparable properties are assessed lower per sqft or unit.

  • Deadline risk

    Appeal window closing soon on one or more properties.

  • Carry-forward risk

    Last year’s reduction may reset upward without annual monitoring.

  • Evidence strength

    Whether the case is worth filing based on comps and county data.

02

Year two and beyond

A successful appeal can create verified first-year savings, but future-year impact depends on the county and the reassessment cycle. Regilon keeps monitoring so owners know whether savings persist, reset, or need defending again.

  6. 06Re-screen every year

First-year savings are verified. Future-year savings are monitored.

03

What happens after the result?

  • Won reduction

    First-year savings are verified; Regilon tracks whether the reduction carries forward and alerts you if the county reassesses upward.

  • Lost appeal

    The property stays under watch for new comps, income changes, or assessment jumps that could strengthen a future case.

  • Did not file

    Monitoring continues, with an alert if the economics change before a future deadline.

  • Property sold or acquired

    Tax exposure becomes acquisition and disposition intelligence — reassessment risk, appeal upside, and NOI impact.

Five stages. One case, from screen to verified.

One case branches through five connected stages — each hands the next an explicit state, and nothing advances by inference. Follow a branch to see what runs inside it.

The caseOne workspace-scoped case
1.0

Screen

Rank the portfolio by what the county record actually says.

1.1County record match

Add accounts, addresses, or a portfolio file. Each property is matched to its county appraisal record, and screening works from that record — not from a guess.

1.2Equity signal

Comparable properties are compared on assessed value per square foot. When peers are assessed lower, the gap appears as a screening signal — a planning estimate, never a verified outcome.

1.3Deadline posture

Every property shows where it stands against its jurisdiction’s protest window, so urgency is visible while there is still time to act.

Source room

Collect the documents that change the next decision.

2.1Documents that unlock steps

Notices, tax bills, rent rolls, sale evidence, and outcome orders are requested where they unlock the next step. Every source names what it makes possible.

2.2Extraction with provenance

Every extracted field carries its own provenance — the document it came from and its review status. An extraction stays a candidate until it is confirmed; it never silently overwrites a county record.

2.3Honest coverage

Coverage is reported as it stands: which sources are captured, which need review, and what each gap blocks. A missing source never becomes clear by inference.

3.0

Review

A reviewer clears the case before money moves.

3.1Comparable QA with named exclusion reasons

Every comparable that is excluded carries a named reason — different subtype, stale sale, size out of band. Reviewers see selected and excluded peers before relying on an equity comparison.

3.2Reviewer gates before checkout

Packet checkout opens only after review gates clear. If a gate holds, the property shows the reason — not a payment button.

3.3The evidence packet

The reviewed packet separates county facts, uploaded sources, and labeled estimates into numbered sections built for a filing decision. Estimates stay labeled until they are reviewed.

Watch

Keep the whole portfolio under annual watch.

4.1Nightly county checks

Public county sources are checked nightly. Results are recorded per source, and a partial failure is persisted as a failure — a failed check never reports as clear.

4.2Public-record change feed

Assessment changes, protest-status updates, and tax-rate movement are logged against the specific property and tax year, so you can see what moved and when.

4.3Deadline control

Protest windows and jurisdiction deadlines are tracked per property. The Action Center ranks what needs attention before a window closes.

Verify

Savings count only when documents confirm them.

5.1Outcome documents

Outcomes are recorded from documents — ARB orders, corrected notices, tax bills — not from assumptions about what probably happened.

5.2Bill-verified savings

Savings move through explicit proof stages, from screening exposure to bill-verified. A dollar is verified only when the tax bill confirms it; estimates never graduate on their own.

5.3Independent fee audit

The Outcome & Fee Audit independently verifies a filed protest’s result from official documents before any success fee applies.

FIG 0.1Source-backed

Every material fact carries its source.

County values, documents, and deadlines are captured with their source and as-of date. A missing source stays missing — it never silently becomes zero or clear.

FIG 0.2Reviewer-gated

Review gates come before checkout.

Packet checkout opens only after review gates clear, and nothing files without your explicit consent. Estimates stay labeled as estimates until the case is reviewed.

FIG 0.3Verified-only

Savings count only when documents confirm them.

Estimated savings are planning signals, not verified outcomes. Success fees apply only after savings are confirmed against official documents.

Numbers under the hood

The workspace sits on an indexed county record base, a reconciled analysis layer, and a model calibrated on real protest outcomes — counted, not claimed.
