Property Tax Operations

TaxProper is Hiring -- Property Tax Operations

Mission and Opportunity 💭

We're building the plumbing system of real estate, starting with property taxes.

Each year, American local governments — cities, counties, school districts, and other special districts — collectively raise more than $500 billion in property taxes. Each locality independently designs, administers, and collects what, in aggregate, is the largest single source of revenue for American local governments.

The result is a patchwork of more than 20,000 unique property tax regimes — a regulatory and compliance nightmare for institutional real estate operators and enterprises with large real estate footprints.

We built TaxProper to solve this problem. Our product abstracts away all of the messiness of our property tax system for our customers. In building TaxProper, however, we realized there are dozens of other areas as painful as the property tax system that intersect with property ownership — from interacting with millions of homeowner associations (HOAs) to paying your utility bills.

Internally, we refer to these issues as the plumbing system of real estate and our long-term opportunity. So there you have it. We're working on building the plumbing system of real estate, starting with property taxes.
