What must a property owner do to appeal property tax assessments?

  1. Write a letter to the local newspaper

  2. File a lawsuit after a denial from the tax review board

  3. Start a petition in the community

  4. Directly negotiate with the tax assessor

The correct answer is: File a lawsuit after a denial from the tax review board

To appeal property tax assessments, the property owner must file a lawsuit after receiving a denial from the tax review board. This option is the only one that involves a formal and legal process for appealing property taxes. Writing a letter to the local newspaper, starting a petition in the community, and directly negotiating with the tax assessor are not appropriate methods for appealing property taxes and are unlikely to result in a successful appeal. Additionally, these options do not provide a formal way for the property owner to present their case and provide evidence for their appeal. Thus, they are not effective ways to appeal property tax assessments.
