Terms of Service

2. Description of Services & No Legal or Certified Appraisal Advice

Peach Appeals provides data-driven Georgia property tax assessment evaluations, comparable sales and assessment uniformity schedules, Georgia Department of Revenue Form PT-311A preparation, and (for Full Service clients) administrative appeal filing and Board of Equalization representation under O.C.G.A. § 48-5-311.

Disclaimer: Peach Appeals is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice or legal representation. Value estimates and evidence packets prepared by Peach Appeals are analytical tax assessment submissions prepared to support the property owner's opinion of value before county tax authorities and do not constitute a USPAP-certified real estate appraisal for mortgage lending or litigation purposes.

3. Legal Property Owner Attestation & Authorization

Under Georgia law (O.C.G.A. § 48-5-311), only the legal owner of record (or a legally authorized title holder or representative) may initiate a property tax assessment appeal. When you enroll in Full Service representation or submit an appeal authorization through Peach Appeals, you represent, warrant, and attest that:

• You are the legal owner of record or legally authorized representative of the subject property;
• All property condition statements, repair estimates, and photographs you provide are truthful and accurate to the best of your knowledge; and
• Your electronic signature carries the same legal force and effect as a manual handwritten signature.

4. Service Plans, Contingency Fees & Payment Terms

• Full Service Appeal Representation (25% Contingency Fee): There is no upfront fee ($0 due at enrollment). If your property's assessed value is reduced for the applicable tax year, you agree to pay Peach Appeals a contingency fee equal to twenty-five percent (25%) of your first-year property tax savings resulting from the reduction. If your property assessment is not reduced, you owe $0.
• Do-It-Yourself (DIY) Appeal Packet ($59 Flat Fee): For DIY orders, a one-time flat fee of $59.00 is charged at checkout for the generation and delivery of your customized appeal evidence package and Form PT-311A filing instructions. DIY customers are responsible for submitting their own appeal to the county prior to the statutory 45-day filing deadline.

5. No Guarantee of Assessment Reduction

All final property valuation determinations, assessment reductions, and three-year freeze qualifications under O.C.G.A. § 48-5-299(c) are decided solely by the applicable County Board of Tax Assessors, County Board of Equalization, or hearing officer. While Peach Appeals uses official county CAMA records and statutory valuation methodologies, we cannot and do not guarantee any specific reduction amount or tax savings outcome.

7. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Peach Appeals and its representatives from any claims, losses, or expenses arising out of any inaccurate ownership attestation, false property condition statement, or breach of these Terms by you; provided that in any case where liability is attributed to Peach Appeals, Peach Appeals' liability will not go over $100.00.

8. Governing Law & Dispute Resolution

These Terms and any dispute arising out of or relating to the Services shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia, without regard to its conflict of law principles.
