What some professional experts are saying about this book:

“This book is the most authoritative text dedicated to property tax valuation principles that I have ever reviewed in my 30 plus years of property tax practice. It is a comprehensive analysis addressing valuation issues important to attorneys, appraisers and property tax professionals. Every property tax practitioner’s reference library should have a copy."

“. . . a valuable resource for a wide variety of readers. I predict this book will be an important reference book for experienced valuation professionals, a useful tool for learning valuation principles for readers new to the profession, and a good source of appraisal authority for lawyers, accountants, business tax representatives and government taxing authorities who work in the property tax field. It is written in a clear and well-organized manner, with examples, illustrations and checklists that make a complex subject more understandable.”
