How do I lower my property tax?

The only thing that you can do to lower your property taxes is to appeal the valuation given to your property by the county. If you're already receiving an actual bill for the taxes, there's nothing you can really do about that amount. But, next year, you can file a property tax return yourself (look at the website for the Georgia Department of Revenue for the return form), and you can state what you believe the value of your property to be. If the county agrees, you'll get a lower value and therefore your taxes should be lower. If the county doesn't agree, they'll let you know. You can then appeal that decision and continue to try and make your case for the lower value. There are property tax services that specialize in helping people appeal valuations. I'd look for one of those and talk with them about your chances for appealing next year's valuation.
