Business Personal Property Rendition Tool

This free site will guide you through the nuances of completing the rendition form (called property reporting in some states) while:
Save Time: You are provided tips on how to quickly complete the rendition form. The appraisal district instructions suggest providing extensive detail on personal property bought by year and by type. We help you utilize a much simpler process which also reduces your personal property taxes.
Save Money: The method of completing the form suggested by appraisal districts is best for them but not for you. It takes more time and is used to estimate an unreasonable valuation for your business personal property. Our method takes less time and will reduce your personal property taxes.
Avoid the penalty for not rendering: Using this simple process, you can complete the rendition form in 5 to 10 minutes, avoid the penalty and likely reduce your personal property taxes.
In summary, we walk you through the process and provide tips on what to do depending on your situation.
