DIG Philadelphia Commercial Sub Group - March 2013 (AVI and CCIM)

A very hot topic has been added to the Philadelphia Commercial Sub-Group on Tuesday Night. During these cold winter months the property reassessments and how they will affect property taxes with the new Actual Value Initiative or AVI. The city has recalculated the value of all its taxable land. There will be winners and there will be losers, and the suspense is about to end as the new property assessments are in the mail. Some homeowners have already gotten them - others are still waiting. Predictions, however, say taxes could end up doubling for some. We will have an expert legal counsel in regards to this subject start the meeting, Michael Mattioni Esq. and his focus of his practice is on corporate and other business organizations, real estate, land use and zoning, taxation and estate planning.
