The real estate appeal deadline for Allegheny County, PA is set for March 31, 2023. This year’s deadline is very important for commercial real estate owners and investors due to the equalization ratio being reduced from 81.1% to 63.6%. This translates to a nearly 28% increase in the market value of all properties in the county at the stroke of midnight on January 1, 2023.
Further, a recent court ruling which reopens the 2022 tax year to appeal opportunities is also in effect with the same March 31, 2023 appeal deadline. In this instance, an Allegheny County Court of Common Pleas judge ordered the 2022 equalization ratio to be reduced from 81.1% to 63.6% (this ratio is still pending). This ruling sets up the same increase in value scenario described above for the 2022 tax year, leaving commercial real estate owners and investors with additional threat to their bottom lines.
