About Us

Commercial Tax Network (CTN) is a Houston-based consulting firm that represents corporate clients in property tax matters across the nation. As a property owner, a high percentage of your company's gross revenue goes to pay ad valorem taxes, and a significant amount of your company's time is spent examining these costs. Our goal is to manage and reduce your company’s property tax expenditures so that you save money and valuable time. Working independently or as an extension of your tax department, we combine the advantage of an extensive market database with our tax consultants and appraisers who are experienced in minimizing property tax liabilities.

In this highly specialized ad valorem tax field, there is no substitute for experienced and qualified consultants who meet face to face with representatives of the taxing authorities. Our staff possesses over 85 years of combined experience in property tax consulting and is skilled in representing various types of properties that include industrial facilities, apartment complexes, hotels, motels, office buildings, shopping centers and raw land. Also, our consultants are experts in both industrial and commercial business personal property. The combined value of properties represented by CTN exceeds one billion dollars.

We employ professional integrity in decision-making and design individual solutions to meet your specific needs. Property taxes are governed by the Texas Property Tax Code (a very complex document which defines how the respective appraisal districts arrive at their values). The tax code is always undergoing changes and modifications that need to be continually monitored. Our staff is on the cutting edge of these changes and we utilize them to achieve the best results possible.
