Terms of Service

PLAINVIEW REIT, LLC d/b/a FairValue Tax Appeal ("FairValue," "we," "us," or "our") is a property tax grievance filing service operating in New York State. FairValue Tax Appeal is not a licensed law firm and does not provide legal advice. Our services consist of preparing and filing property tax grievance applications with the Nassau County Assessment Review Commission (ARC) and, where applicable, representing clients in Small Claims Assessment Review (SCAR) proceedings before the New York State Supreme Court as a non-attorney representative.

You are not required by law to hire a tax reduction company to file a grievance. You may file on your own at no cost through Nassau County's ARC portal.

To use our services, you must:

• Be at least 18 years of age.
• Be the recorded owner of the property.
• Own a one-, two-, or three-family home used exclusively for residential purposes (unless otherwise agreed in writing).
• Be filing for a Nassau County property (Suffolk County availability subject to separate agreement).

By submitting the digital authorization form you authorize FairValue Tax Appeal to:

• Prepare and file your tax grievance application with the Nassau County ARC for the 2027/28 tax year.
• Represent you in ARC communications, settlement negotiations, and SCAR proceedings as needed.
• Accept ARC settlement offers on your behalf at our discretion.
• Receive any property tax refund check issued by Nassau County, deduct our fee, and remit the balance to you within 30 days.

Your authorization is exclusive — you may only hire one representative per property per tax year. By executing an authorization with FairValue you agree not to retain any other representative or attorney for the same filing period.

We offer two fee arrangements, selected at checkout:

4a. Contingency Plan (No Win, No Fee)

• No fee is charged if there is no assessment reduction.
• If successful, you agree to pay 30% of your tax savings for the 2027/28 tax year, calculated using 2027/28 tax rates only.
• If a SCAR appeal is filed and warranted, you agree to pay or reimburse the $30 NYS Court filing fee.
• If you default on payment after 30 days, the fee increases to 50% of savings plus a $50 late fee, plus any reasonable attorney's fees and court costs incurred by FairValue in collection.
• You remain responsible for the fee if you sell your home or vacate the property. It is your responsibility to notify FairValue of a pending sale so the case may be transferred to the buyer prior to closing.
• By saving your payment method at checkout, you authorize FairValue to charge the card on file upon resolution of your appeal.

4b. Flat Fee Plan

• A one-time fee of $149.00 is charged at the time of filing.
• This fee is non-refundable once your case has been submitted to the ARC.
• You keep 100% of any tax savings achieved.
• The SCAR filing fee ($30) applies if a SCAR appeal is warranted and filed.

All payments are processed securely by Stripe, Inc. We do not store card numbers on our servers.

You may cancel by written request, with no penalty, before your case is filed with the Nassau County ARC (filing deadline: March 31, 2026 for the 2027/28 cycle).

Contingency plan: Cases withdrawn after filing, or withdrawn due to a duplicate filing, are subject to a $285 cancellation fee.

Flat fee plan: The $149 fee is non-refundable once your case has been filed with ARC.

To cancel, email cancel@fairvaluetaxappeals.com with your name, property address, and reason for cancellation.

FairValue Tax Appeal makes no guarantee that your assessment will be reduced. Results depend on applicable law, comparable sales evidence, ARC decisions, and SCAR court rulings, all of which are outside our control. Past results for other clients do not guarantee similar outcomes for you.

By typing your name and signing the digital authorization form, you agree that your electronic signature has the same legal effect as a handwritten signature under the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (E-SIGN) and New York Electronic Signatures and Records Act (ESRA).

You consent to receive all disclosures, agreements, and communications electronically. You may request a paper copy at any time by contacting us.
