Our attorneys have extensive real estate tax experience not only in Montgomery County, but also in counties throughout eastern Pennsylvania, including Philadelphia. We have pursued real estate tax assessment appeals for properties of all types, including affordable rental housing, utility, and condominium properties, as well as real estate tax exemptions for properties owned by non-profit entities.
High Swartz LLP attorneys have negotiated payment in lieu of tax ("PILOT") agreements and real estate tax abatements for new construction under Pennsylvania's Local Economic Revitalization Tax Act ("LERTA") throughout the Commonwealth, and have participated in the negotiation of tax increment financing agreements with local taxing officials. Our attorneys are also familiar with the complexities of Pennsylvania and Philadelphia real estate transfer tax statutes and regulations.
