Property Tax Consulting Effectively managed, property tax can be a "profit center." How? The knowledgeable negotiators at State Tax Advisors can develop appropriate valuation reducing strategies to achieve market values in the lower end of the range.

Franchise Tax   Franchise tax is similar to sales tax and is often overlooked as a tax strategy states use to generate revenue. Taxability determination for franchise tax operates somewhat like nexus, because a state bases taxability on the amount of shares a company issues in a state or the amount of their assets in a state. To gain revenue from franchise tax, states closely monitor multi-state operations for enforcement of nexus, apportionment, throwback rules and the overall sourcing of income based on constitutional and interstate commerce issues.
Compliance Outsourcing It is an administrative burden to keep up with the wide range of state and local tax jurisdictions, regulations, filing requirements, refund opportunities, forms, nexus and other issues. It can be a challenge to the internal resources of even the largest organizations. Outsourcing sales and use compliance and tax return preparation is often the best business approach. At State Tax Advisors, we customize our services to fit your specific needs.
