Property Tax Advisor, Utah

About the role

FairAppeal is a financial advisor for homeowners, helping them better manage their home finances, starting with property taxes. We are hiring advisors familiar with Utah to present prepared cases to county Boards of Equalization on behalf of property owners. Property taxes have increased 31% since 2019, and we aim to help homeowners manage these costs.

This is flexible, supplemental contractor work that suits people who want to take on cases on their own schedule. Most hearings are conducted virtually or by phone, allowing you to work from anywhere.

Responsibilities

• Review the prepared case materials and supporting evidence ahead of each hearing.
• Represent property owners at Board of Equalization hearings across Utah.
• Present the evidence clearly and persuasively to board members.
• Engage in informal negotiation or settlement discussions with the assessor or board where allowed.
• Report hearing outcomes back to the team.

Requirements

• Comfortable presenting and advocating in a hearing setting.
• Organized, reliable, and responsive.
• Familiar with Utah and how its local boards work (you do not need to live in the state).

Bonus if you have appeared before a valuation board or previously worked as an assessor, but neither is required. Every case comes fully prepared for you to present.
